We customize every 4-hour TDG ground and IATA training session to your shipping/receiving requirements. After demonstrating competency, trainees are issued a plastic TDG wallet card specifying expiry date, training topics, hazard classes. The card provides a space for both employee and employer signatures. Employers receive the completed sign-in sheet, the completed and graded quizzes. We database all training to ensure you have records of training. TDG ground cards are valid for 36 months, IATA cards are valid for 24 months.
