HazMat training offered online

By General Aviation News Staff · August 15, 2013 ·

Aviation Training Academy (ATA) has  launched its new online training program directed at FBOs, corporate flight departments, municipalities, fueling agents, line service technicians, and mechanics.

New regulations, under the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals (GHS), were adopted by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). They mandate that employers must have their employees trained on the new GHS label elements and Safety Data Sheet format by Dec. 1, 2013.

The course complies with and meets the requirements of the new regulation, ATA officials said.

“The course curriculum includes material on the new documents, formatting, labeling, signal words and pictograms of the GHS to effectively understand the system when these begin to arrive in their workplaces,” states ATA’s Dave Ware.

Cost of this online training is $89.95 and is available through ATA’s website.

ATA also offers other online courses, including: Line Service Technician Certification; 14 CFR 139 Supervisor Certification; 14 CFR 139 Auditor’s Practical Checklist for Completing 14 CFR139 Inspection; FBO Preparation for the 14 CFR 139 Inspection, and Self Fueling Operations.
