February 21, 2025

The NVFC, in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) Pipeline and Hazardous Materials Safety Administration (PHMSA), is offering a hazmat train-the-trainer program: Partners in Training (PIT) Crew. The course will be held Friday, March 28 – Saturday, March 29 from 9am-5pm in Thomson, Georgia, and is hosted by Thomson McDuffie Emergency Services.

This project will help first responders gain the knowledge and skills they need to train others in their communities on hazmat safety and response. Experienced hazmat trainers and those new to the field are welcome to participate. After the course, attendees will receive a materials toolkit and session slides to help them teach these courses to others.

Attendees will have the opportunity to attend all three courses over the weekend:
