What is TDG

Dangerous goods are items or substances that may pose a risk to human health, property, safety, or the environment during transportation. Such goods must be appropriately labelled, handled, and contained according to regulations to protect public safety.

This comprehensive course in TDG teaches workers how to recognize and correctly communicate the nature and level of danger associated with specific chemicals. In addition, students learn how to transport and contain dangerous goods and how to report their operations properly.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to assign the courses immediately after purchasing them?

When you make a purchase on eSafetyFirst, the course credits do not expire. This means that if you pay for 30 courses but you end up using only 20, the remaining 10 credits will be available in your account until you actually use them.

Is there a pricing difference between Group and Individual Training?

No. The price is the same for both methods of training. The only difference between them is how the training system works.

Can I export/import the program in our own LMS?

No. In order to be able to control the access, distribution and editorial rights to our content, we do not provide access to the programs outside our own platform.

Can I get a demo account?

We offer platform demo and course demo directly within this product page. These features, along with a 100% refund policy for failing to provide what is promised on the product page, should suffice in evaluating our services. We do not provide trial or demo accounts because we have certain T&C which can only be enforced by entering a commercial agreement.

What payment methods are accepted?

In order to make a payment, you can use either a credit or a debit card from the following issuers: Visa, Mastercard, AMEX. Corporate accounts with over 1000 courses purchased, can also opt for direct bank transfer.
