TDG Competency-Based Training: Carrier
Danatec is pleased to provide comprehensive, competency-based transportation of dangerous goods training online. Our new TDG training has been designed to meet the standards of CAN/CGSB-192.3-2020: Transportation of dangerous goods training, assessment and competency. This TDG training is offered via four role-based certifications for specialists, shippers, carriers, and receivers. This TDG Carrier course includes the training competency activities typically required by workers who just receive dangerous goods.
This certification includes TDG General Awareness Training (GAT), a Final Exam, and the competency exercises generally applicable to carriers of dangerous goods. We recommend you review the competencies included with each certification to determine which program suits your needs.
Upon completion of a TDG certification, a role-specific certificate will be issued and must be signed by the learner’s employer. All GAT topics and completed competencies will be identified on the certificate of completion.
