Our DOT Hazmat: Segregation - Air training course provides students with training on the Department of Transportation’s (DOT) and International Air Transport Association’s (IATA) segregation requirements for the domestic and international shipment of hazardous materials (or dangerous goods) by cargo or passenger plane as an air carrier in the United States and in all aircraft registered in the United States anywhere in the world.
Students who should take this course are those who are involved in the shipment of hazardous materials by air. This can include, but is not limited to, workers who package materials for shipment, aircraft staff who transport hazardous materials, and workers who load material onto cargo or passenger planes.
The bottom line in ALL SITUATIONS is that employers are required to ensure that their employees are adequately trained to do their job.
This training is brought to you by a team of Certified Outreach Trainers and is based upon Federal Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations found in 49 CFR Part 175.78 and the Dangerous Goods Regulations 9.3.2.1 and 9.3.2.2.

The objectives of this DOT Hazmat: Segregation - Air course are to address the requirements for the domestic transportation of hazardous materials by air found in 49 CFR Part 175.78 of the Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR) and requirements for international transportation of dangerous goods by air found in the Dangerous Goods Regulations (DGR) 9.3.2.1 and 9.3.2.2.
Upon completion of this course, the student will be able to:
Hazmat training must include:
Each Hazmat Employer must train, test and certify each Hazmat Employee initially within 90 days of employment and recurrent training is required at least once every three years.
A carrier to whom the HMR applies may not transport a hazardous material by air unless each of its hazmat employees involved in that transportation has been trained and tested as required.
Initial training is required within 90 days for new employees or employees who assume new hazmat related responsibilities. Until they are trained, these employees may perform a hazardous materials employee function only under direct supervision.
This DOT Hazmat: Segregation - Air course provides training in the requirements for any personnel involved in the transportation of hazardous materials by air.
Additional training may be warranted depending on the role of the worker and their level of involvement, which may include emergency response training, additional DOT hazardous materials training, or training in the use of personal protective equipment (PPE) used as part of the job.
Additional training in the use of any personal protective equipment (PPE) or clothing used as part of emergency response is also required and should be provided by your employer.
Workers must receive additional training, when required by Federal, State, or local regulations, on the specific hazards of their job. Training Providers should be used to ensure credibility and augment a company’s training program. Therefore, in addition to the training provided by an outside party, a student should receive site-specific training supplied by their employer. This training should target the company’s unique approach to hazard prevention, including the use of site-specific equipment, health and safety policies, and emergency procedures. As a rule, this company-specific training should be well documented.

The term "hazmat employer" also includes any department, agency, or instrumentality of the United States, a State, a political subdivision of a State, or an Indian tribe engaged in offering or transporting hazmat in commerce.
