Shipping Dangerous Goods - Initial Training
The University requires all faculty, staff and students who are involved in any aspect of shipping dangerous
goods (e.g., packing, labeling, transporting, etc.) to attend a DOT/IATA Initial Training course.
The initial course is held in a classroom setting so class size is limited and pre registration is required. Contact Mike Blackard to find the next available date and register.
Shipping Dangerous Goods - Refresher Training
At least every two (2) years following the completion of the Initial Training course, it is required to
complete DOT/IATA Refresher Training to maintain the legal ability to ship dangerous goods. This
refresher certification can only be taken by individuals who have previously successfully completed the
Initial Training course. If Refresher Training is not completed within two (2) years of the Initial Training
