HazMat Technician Training will prepare responders for Technician-level Hazardous Materials certification. This multi-hour course, based on NFPA® 472 standards, provides participants with specific response knowledge and skills, enabling them to respond safely and effectively to a suspected incident at the hazardous materials technician level.

Participants receive hands-on training in donning and doffing Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) Levels A and B, containing leaks and drum overpacking, containing leaks in pressurized containers, and performing technical and mass decontamination. The HMT course culminates with performance of these offensive-level tasks in an activity in which the participants apply the knowledge and skills learned in a simulated environment.
