Hazardous materials (HAZMAT) training arms students with the proper management of hazardous materials. This is useful to anyone working with chemicals, waste, or in environments deemed dangerous. Some career choices in this field include chemical delivery driver, hazardous waste technician, and environmental specialist.

The HAZMAT Technician course is designed for those who must handle chemical hazards on a regular basis. This is a requirement for anyone working in a "hot zone." The waste Site Technician course complements the aforementioned training; it is essential for anyone who must wear protective HAZMAT gear at their worksite.

Once students complete the above courses, they are encouraged to enroll in the Annual HAZWOPER Refresher, an eight-hour review course for anyone who is already certified in waste management.

First response training instructs students on how to handle rescue efforts involving hazardous chemicals. First responders may be employed as paramedics or environmental control specialists.

The First Responder Awareness course and the First Responder Operations course are for students who want to pursue a line of work where they will defuse hazardous chemical emergencies.
