Currie Associates Inc has completed its newest training program, Eight Easy Steps to Navigating the IMDG (International Maritime Dangerous Goods) Code. This program consists of a CD-ROM with more than 250 action Power Point slides and an instructor's guide to present an employee training program in a modular format for each function covered by the regulations. The eight steps consist of:

• Construction of the Code

• Hazard Classification based on UN Criteria

• Use of the Dangerous Goods List, UN Number Index, and Limited Quantities

• Packing and Tank Provisions

• Consignment Procedures for Marking, Labeling, and Placarding

• Dangerous Goods Declaration and Container Packing Certificate

• Transport Operations, Stowage, Segregation, and Container Packing

• Use of the IMDG Code and 49 CFR Requirements for Import/Export

Each step includes checklists, work projects, and examination questions. The CD-ROM permits use of an LCD projector or printing the slides as overhead transparencies, or converting the slides to a 35-mm slide medium. For more information, phone 518-761-0668 or e-mail mail@currieassociates.com.
