This course covers the practical application of the Australian Dangerous Goods (ADG) Code, including how dangerous goods are classified, labelled and transported, along with placarding requirements, Emergency Information Panels (EIP), and the responsibilities placed on drivers under road transport legislation.
You’ll also build confidence in identifying hazards, managing risks, and responding to incidents in line with National Heavy Vehicle Regulator (NHVR) expectations and state-based dangerous goods transport regulations.
This course is suited to:
Truck drivers transporting dangerous goods
Learn how to apply the ADG Code on the road and ensure every load meets placarding and documentation requirements.
Transport and logistics operators
Understand your responsibilities for scheduling, route planning and keeping consignments compliant during transit.
Fleet managers and supervisors
Gain the practical knowledge needed to oversee drivers and vehicles handling regulated loads safely.
Safety managers and compliance officers
Strengthen your grasp of transport safety standards and how they integrate with broader WHS obligations.
Workers required to drive vehicles carrying dangerous goods
Develop the confidence to identify risks, follow procedures, and respond appropriately to any incidents.
If your role involves moving fuel, chemicals, gases or other regulated substances, this training gives you the grounding you need to do it properly and safely.
AlertForce delivers this dangerous goods course through structured, competency-based training led by experienced trainers who understand how these requirements play out in real workplaces. Training is typically completed in a face-to-face or classroom environment, with a mix of practical scenarios and knowledge-based assessment.
Across the program, you’ll examine real‑world transport scenarios, interpret labelling and segregation rules, and practice completing documentation correctly under the ADG Code. Trainers draw on their industry experience to relate legislation back to daily operations, making the material accessible and directly applicable to your work.
You’ll be assessed on your ability to interpret and apply the ADG Code, follow placarding requirements, understand Emergency Information Panels, and meet your obligations under road transport compliance frameworks.
On successful completion, you’ll receive a statement of attainment that supports your application for a dangerous goods licence through your relevant state or territory authority.
This means you’re not just learning theory; you’re learning what regulators expect to see when you’re out on the road.
To enrol, participants must hold a current and valid driver licence appropriate to the vehicle they operate. You’ll also need sufficient English language, literacy and numeracy skills to complete the training and assessment. Additional requirements such as age limits, identification and medical fitness may apply when applying for your dangerous goods licence through your state or territory authority.
For those managing broader safety responsibilities, this course also pairs well with related training such as Fatigue Management Training, helping you build a complete approach to driver safety and compliance.
