SHIPPING DANGEROUS GOODS BY SEA
This is an entry-level program, and is designed for anyone new to the regulations for shipping by sea that have been set out by IMDG. This course will give you an overview of the proper labeling requirements of dangerous goods, what packaging types and methods need to be used depending on the goods you are shipping, what documents need to be filed, who needs to be notified, and what the requirements are for everyone involved in the shipping process.
The IMDG Code is an internationally recognised guideline for the safe transportation or shipment of dangerous goods or hazardous materials by water on a vessel. The code is amended every 2 years.
This course is recommended for anyone that is shipping dangerous goods by sea, people who will be directly or indirectly handling these goods or their documentation, companies or individuals who are receiving dangerous goods, or even those who will only be briefly involved in the process as a third party worker.
Upon completion, students will be issued a wallet certificate which should be kept on their person at all times in addition to a wall mountable full sized certificate.
