Sgt. Karlton Sims, 731st Combat Sustainment Support Battalion, Alabama Army National Guard, describes his experience in the Technical Transportation of Hazardous Material course. The course is a must have certification for many career fields in the Army National Guard.

There are five tests the students must pass to complete the two week course at the National Guard Professional Education Center, each focused on a separate aspect of handling and transporting hazardous materials.

The "Technical Transportation of HAZMAT" course teaches detailed technical information pertaining to all phases of transportation for hazardous materials. Personnel who successfully complete this course may be appointed to certify hazardous material shipments by land, vessel, and both commercial and military air.
