About the course
Training in the carriage of dangerous goods by road is a legal requirement for all persons involved in their transport.
Not all drivers require an "ADR Licence" however; many drivers transport smaller quantities of dangerous goods which do not require full ADR vocational training.
This course is specifically aimed at those drivers, and crew members. For the transportation of Class 7 UN numbers: UN 2908, UN 2909, UN 2910, UN 2911 and in accordance with ADR Chapter 8.5 S12: UN 2915 and UN 3332.
This course provides you with all of the necessary information to meet your awareness training obligations.
The course is entirely online and allows you to work through at your own pace.
Downloadable guidance is included with the course for you to reference back to at a later date. The provisions are explained clearly by video with accompanying examples.
