TDG: An Overview - CCOHS

Regular price $49.00 USD

This online course introduces the Transportation of Dangerous Goods (TDG) Act and Regulations. It’s perfect for managers, supervisors, and staff who need to understand TDG—but aren’t directly handling or shipping dangerous goods. You’ll learn what the law requires, what your responsibilities are, and how to support compliance in your workplace.

Developed by the Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS), this course also covers training and certification requirements, exemptions, proper labeling, and emergency response.

Note: A CCOHS record of completion is provided after passing the final exam. A formal TDG Certificate of Training must be issued by your employer upon completion of job-specific training.
