Gain complete and updated knowledge on the latest dangerous goods training approach under Competency Based Training and Assessment (CBTA). CBTA is a holistic approach to training and assessment that evaluates a learner’s performance on the job, rather than just the result of a test. It is designed to ensure that the learner has acquired the necessary skills, knowledge, and abilities to perform the task safely, accurately and productively.

The courses included in this diploma will enable you to enhance your knowledge and skills to build and manage dangerous goods training programs, and enable you to be involved in the training delivery process of the program itself.

You will also learn how to take a proactive approach beyond the training program and learn from an audit and inspection point of view. You’ll also boost your skillset to achieve compliance and follow the CBTA approach to strengthen these safety foundations within your organization.
