Hazardous Materials

All hazmat employers are required by U.S. law to obtain hazmat training for their hazmat employees - and the government's definition of who is a hazmat employer is VERY broad (including practically all aeronautical repair stations, and most other aviation businesses). FAA Order 8300.10 now requires FAA principal inspectors to check your hazmat compliance!

The Washington Aviation Group, in partnership with AEA, ARSA and ASA, offers hazardous materials/dangerous goods training. The training class is two days long and it meets the training requirements of Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations as well as the IATA/ICAO requirements. The registration fee includes all books and materials, as well as lunch on each day. Those who successfully complete the class will receive a training certificate as well as a record of training suitable for retention in company personnel files. Members of the sponsoring trade associations (AEA, ARSA and ASA) receive a discount on registration (see below for prices).

We plan to hold at least two public classes in 2012.  We will also hold a number of private classes for single (corporate) clients.  Please feel free to call us if you need to schedule a class for your company - we are always happy to work with you  to schedule a class that meets your needs.
