In addition to the 4 modules for the ADR certificate of professional competence for vehicle drivers, the ADR lists a number of more or less specific education and training courses. ADR training in the safe handling of dangerous goods is the basis for various training courses, such as the &#8220;Working Safely with Hazardous Materials&#8221;, &#8220;ADR for Managers&#8221;, &#8220;Competence in Handling Hazardous Substances (PGS-15)&#8221; and the many customized corporate training courses. Another mandatory ADR training course is the &#8220;Road Transport Safety Advisor&#8221; course. ADR training is also mandatory for persons handling gassed containers, and persons involved in loading and unloading dangerous goods must also take ADR training.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"container \" data-type=\"core\/buttons\"><div class=\"row justify-content-center\"><div class=\"col-12 col-md-12 col-lg-10 col-xl-8\"> \n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-layout-flex wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link wp-element-button\" href=\"https:\/\/specialcargo.nl\/en\/blog\/types-of-adr-training\/\">Read more<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"container \" data-type=\"core\/paragraph\"><div class=\"row justify-content-center\"><div class=\"col-12 col-md-12 col-lg-10 col-xl-8\"> \n<p><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is an ADR course?
