First responders at the hazardous materials (hazmat) technician level are individuals who respond to releases or potential releases of hazardous substances for the purpose of stopping the release. They take a more aggressive role than lower-level responders and will approach the point of release to plug, patch, or otherwise stop the release.

This curriculum provides employees with the information they need to understand the major areas covered by the regulation. The package provides the basis for the special training required for HAZMAT Technicians.

There are 11 online courses included within the HAZWOPER: Emergency Response Initial Training: Hazmat Technician-Level Responders Curriculum:
