— COURSE DESCRIPTION
Healthcare facilities, laboratories, research institutions, pharmaceutical companies, and medical clinics regularly ship infectious substances, diagnostic specimens, and biological materials—yet improper packaging and shipping of these materials creates serious public health risks and regulatory violations. The U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) classifies infectious substances as hazardous materials requiring specialized training for anyone involved in packaging, marking, labeling, or preparing shipping documentation. With DOT and IATA enforcement actions increasing and fines for non-compliance reaching thousands of dollars per violation, proper training is critical for organizations shipping diagnostic specimens containing live cultures of pathogenic organisms, Category A infectious substances, or Category B biological substances.
This course covers the fundamentals of shipping infectious substances and diagnostic specimens in compliance with U.S. DOT and International Air Transport Association (IATA) Dangerous Goods Regulations. The course has been updated to include recent regulatory changes including HM-215D and covers all activities required when preparing hazardous materials for shipment: classification, packaging, marking, labeling, and documentation requirements for infectious substances (Category A UN 2814 and UN 2900), biological substances (Category B UN 3373), patient specimens, and dry ice (UN 1845).
