The course is delivered by at least two experts from the Hazmat Academy who have spent time as Category 1 first responders, tactical advisers or sector competent chemists. Some of the content is compulsory to ensure the course complies with industry best practice, health and safety legislation and NOG. However, because there is some flexibility with the course content, organisations can discuss their individual requirements with the Hazmat Academy trainers. This flexibility enables local and regional trends, and current issues to be covered.
