Sending potentially dangerous goods through airplane involves stringent procedures and compliances which the transporters need to adhere to for the safe and incident-free operation.
The main purpose of formulating the IATA DGR Refresher Online Training and Certification course for workers who ship hazardous goods by air is to update them about the parameters of International Air Transport Association (IATA) Dangerous Goods Regulations and practices.
The training educates students on how to use IATA principles, responsibilities of shippers and air operators, and how one can safely identify, classify, document, mark, label, pack, handle and transport dangerous goods via air. The course materials include statistical details and core case studies to explain students about the importance of regulations to transport dangerous goods through air transport.
