The Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR) of the Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA) within the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) regulates the transport of hazardous materials within the U.S. Compliance with these regulations are the responsibility of shippers and carriers of hazardous materials (HazMat) and those persons identified as the “destination” or “receiving facility” (aka: consignee).

Compliance with the HMR can be tough. That’s why PHMSA offers one-day training workshops and two-day multi-modal training seminars throughout the U.S.  And the best part?  Both the workshops and seminars are free!  Check out the calendar and details below to select a location and date that is convenient.

One-Day Workshop Calendar and Details

Two-Day Seminar Calendar and Details

Note:  There are no two-day training seminars scheduled for 2017 as of this writing (03.11.17).  Perhaps that will change soon.

Can’t find one that’s right for you?  That’s OK.  Be sure to check back frequently as new locations and dates will be added throughout the year.  Also, some of the workshops and seminars are limited to a certain number of early registrants.  Don’t miss out when the training is right in your back yard and free!

I am now scheduled to attend the one-day training workshop in Burlington, VT on June 27, 2017.  Perhaps I’ll see you there!
