Frequently Asked Questions?
How long does the certificate last?
The certificate lasts two years, after which to maintain the validation to ship dangerous goods by air you’ll need to attend a revalidation course. See here.
Do I need a certificate to ship dangerous goods?
Yes, legally you cannot ship dangerous goods by air in the UK or overseas without a certificate from the CAA or alternative valid competent authority.
My certificate doesn’t expire yet. Can I attend this course?
Under ICAO 1.5.1.3 ‘Personnel must receive ecurrent training and assesment within 24 months of preivous training and assesment to ensure that competency has been maintained.’ However, it also states that if recurrent training and assesment takes place within.
Does the course cover the IATA and ICAO regulations?
The course meets the training requirements outlined in the ICAO technical instructions. For the purposes of training we do use the IATA manual, since this is more commonly used commercially.
Is the exam taken on the course?
Yes, the exam will be conducted during the course at the very end.
Are there any pre-study requirements?
There are no pre-study requirements for this training course, however, we recommend discussing your objectives with your manager before attending the course.
How does the exam work online?
We will ship you an exam paper in a tamper proof envelope that you will open on-camera in-front of our trainer. When the test concludes you will put the exam back in the sealed envelope.
Is the certificate valid overseas?
Every country has its own enforcement regime and interpretation of the training requirements. Many countries will recognise our UK CAA approved training course, but, please check local arrangements with your own competent authority.
I only ship small quantities – is this course right for me?
This training course will enable you to ship any quantity of dangerous goods by air allowed within the regulations. If you do ship smaller quantities within the excepted and limited quantities thresholds we do offer a simplified training course.
I only ship lithium batteries – is this course right for me?
This training course will enable you to ship any quantity of dangerous goods by air allowed within the regulations, including lithium batteries. We do, however, have a specialist lithium battery training course focused solely on battery transport and the practicalities of shipping them by air, road & sea.
Does the training cover radioactive material?
This course covers all classes of dangerous goods, apart from radioactive (class 7). We have a separate specialist course covering class 7 substances for transport by air.
