Technician Level

30 - 32 Hours - 8 to 24 Students

Prerequisite: Hazardous Materials - Operations Level

This is the working level for most haz-mat teams out there. This is the level that gets you into Team Mode. This course will polish your group into a working team, at a more advanced level. The course teaches your team how to deal with dangerous incidents. This course starts at the beginning, covers incident command, and extends all the way to the final critique. The course emphasizes how to safely handle medium size to major multi-day incidents. And it teaches how to handle them, properly, from the minute they occur to the very end.

The course works with advanced techniques, covers all levels of personal protection, and the tools it takes to do the job properly. It covers in-plant emergencies, trucking emergencies (remember, those trucks at your docks may have other substances on board for other facilities), and if your facility has on site rail lines - rail emergencies. This course utilizes many work exercises and scenarios. The course ends with a for real scenario, utilizing much of what was learned during the course.
