This training is required for anyone who ships hazardous materials or dangerous goods using a ground shipping service. Is This Course DOT Approved? The answer is no, because the DOT, as a matter of policy, will not "approve" anyone's course. If a training vendor tells you otherwise, then you should look elsewhere. The DOT places the burden of the training on the employer. This course is is designed to help you train workers for ground shipments. This course is not recommended for air shipments or shipments that need to meet the requirements of IATA.
