This course provides tailored dangerous goods awareness, function-specific, safety and security training for people involved in the carriage of asbestos, by road, using the rules of ADR.
This will enable those involved with the carriage of asbestos to meet their ADR Chapter 1.3 training requirements.
The course includes function-specific training for the classification, packing and carriage of asbestos; in its exempt form, in limited quantities, in approved packagings, and in bulk.
Our online video-based course also provides all of the information and training required for those drivers transporting asbestos below the ADR thresholds of 1.1.3.6 (e.g. ≤ 1000 kg of UN 2590 / ≤ 333 kg of UN 2212).
The course is entirely online and allows you to work through the lessons at your own pace. Upon successful completion, you can download your certificate.
The videos in this course are presented in British English (including English captions) with subtitles in Polish (Polski), Ukrainian (українська), German (Deutsch), French (Français), Spanish (Español) and Italian (Italiano). If English is not your first language and you would like subtitles in any other language, please get in touch and we will add them free of charge.
