Shipping HAZMAT By Military Aircraft

This course covers the requirements of the U.S. Air Force Manual (AFMAN) 24-604. It’s sometimes referred to as the Army HAZMAT course even though the rules were written by the Air Force and apply to all branches of the military.

As soon as you complete our AFMAN training online, you’ll have access to download or print your certificate of completion as proof that you’ve completed this required training.

In addition to helping you earn your required military HAZMAT training certificate, you’ll also earn continuing education credits (0.4 CEUS or 4 CMEs) for completing this course.

If you handle, pack, inspect, prepare, or certify hazardous materials that will be transported on military-controlled aircraft, then 49 CFR HAZMAT training isn’t enough. You also need training on military HAZMAT rules found under AFMAN 24-604.

Examples of those who need this aviation HAZMAT training certificate include military personnel, civilian contractors that support the military, and anyone involved in military-supported humanitarian relief efforts, whether they work for a governmental or non-governmental organization (NGO).

If you fall into one of these categories and have duties relevant to the shipping of hazardous materials, you need military HAZMAT training in addition to HAZMAT general awareness training and similar from the DOT.

According to AFMAN 24-604 § A25.5, hazardous material personnel who prepare items for military-controlled aircraft need refresher training every 24 months, whether they’re a handler, packer, inspector, technical specialist, or preparer.

This Army HAZMAT online course meets the AFMAN military training requirements for both initial and recurrent HAZMAT safety training.

We recommend completing the required DOT 49 CFR HAZMAT training first, including your HAZMAT general awareness training and all other components. Since the military HAZMAT regulations found in AFMAN 24-604 build upon these basic national standards, completing DOT HAZMAT courses first may streamline the learning process.
