Dangerous Goods refresher training on changes in IATA DGR 64th Edition for Instructors and Assessors

Dangerous Goods Recurrent Training is recommended by ICAO and IATA Regulations. According DGR 1.5.3 Instructor Qualifications and Competencies instructors of initial and recurrent dangerous goods training programs must demonstrate or be assessed as competent in instruction and the function that they will instruct. They must deliver such a course at least every 24 months, or in the absence of this attend recurrent training.
