NFPA 470 Hazmat Highway Response

Course Overview *NEW 2025 EDITION*

This 40-Hour course prepares you for hazardous materials incidents specifically related to highway transportation of all types, including alternative fuel vehicles, box vans, and cargo tankers.  Topics include container anatomy and features, basic repairs, grounding and bonding, and live transfer techniques and flaring operations, all incorporated into an extensive hands-on experience.

Course objectives

Signet North America’s Hazmat Highway Response course addresses criteria found in 2022 NFPA 470 Chapter 10, Competencies for Hazardous Materials/WMD Technicians, Chapter 11, Professional Qualifications for Hazardous Materials/WMD Technicians, and Chapter 22 — Competencies for Hazardous Materials/WMD Technicians with a Cargo Tank Specialty.

Due to the hands-on nature of this program, attendees will have opportunities to utilize equipment they may already have throughout the course. We believe it is critically important that personnel be able to utilize the equipment they actually use within their own agencies. To that end, we highly encourage attendees to bring their own agency’s materials and equipment whenever possible in order to learn the particular strengths, limitations, and specific applications of their own equipment.

Course Content

The goal of this Signet North America Highway Emergency Response course is to provide 40 hours of high-energy, interactive, and informative education designed to take the attendee through a wide range of subject matter to include, but not be limited to (based on availabilities of equipment and containers):
