CIS offers its industry customers a four-day, in-plant, hazardous waste site worker (40-Hour HAZWOPER) training program for workers who clean up or have exposure to dangerous and hazardous materials in industry facilities. These training programs prepare workers to properly use personal protective equipment (PPE) and manage incidences that could expose them to possible danger from an uncontrolled facility release.
We also offer in-plant training program (16-Hour DOT) for facility workers (i.e., full-time, part-time, or temporary employees). This training program helps workers develop skills to properly load or unload hazardous materials, prepare hazardous materials for shipment, and transport hazardous materials.

If you do not have many workers in your facility who need this training program, you can send them to off-site training programs that we host statewide.
