Transport Canada TDG: Documents, Markings, and Containers

Being able to properly classify dangerous goods for transportation is a key component of TGA. The classifications, their associated safety marks and containment guidelines ensure that all parties involved in the transportation of dangerous materials are aware of what is in a shipment, and how it should be treated. This course will explain dangerous goods classes and divisions, and packing guidelines. Documentation requirements, safety marks and containment methods will also be covered.
