DOT HAZMAT Advanced:
Function Specific
The function-specific course your drivers, dock crews, and safety managers need to stay compliant with 49 CFR §172.704(a)(2). Built for highway operations.
Course Overview
This is function-specific training built exclusively for highway transportation of hazardous materials. It satisfies the requirements of 49 CFR 172.700–704 (Subpart H), including General Awareness, Function-Specific, Safety, and Security Awareness components.
Your employees will learn to classify, package, mark, label, placard, and document HAZMAT shipments for over-the-road transport — with real-world scenarios drawn from highway operations, roadside inspections, and CDL driver responsibilities.

Who This Course Is For
DOT requires function-specific training for anyone who handles, prepares, or makes decisions about highway HAZMAT shipments.
