Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor (DGSA) Training: A Vital Step in Safety and Compliance

By HCPC Training Ltd

Moving dangerous goods is a big job. It must follow strict global rules. A Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor (DGSA) helps companies follow these rules and keep people safe. At HCPC Training, we offer DGSA courses that are clear and easy to follow. Our training gives workers the skills they need. They learn how to manage risks and stay within the law. With our help, they gain the confidence and certificate to do the job right. What is a Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor? A Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor (DGSA) plays an important role in organisations that transport hazardous materials. They make sure the company follows ADR regulations. This includes ensuring the correct classification, packaging, labelling, and transport of dangerous goods. Since January 2000, all companies must appoint a qualified DGSA. To become certified, candidates must pass the DGSA exam, which is run by the Scottish Qualifications Authority (SQA). Why is DGSA Training Important? Dangerous goods include chemicals, explosives, flammable liquids, and toxic substances. These materials need careful handling. The DGSA course helps people manage the complexities of transporting these goods safely. The course covers key topics, such as: ADR classification of dangerous goods (UN Classes 1 to 9). Transport categories, including limited and excepted quantities. Placarding and marking of vehicles for hazardous goods. Essential documentation for safe transport. By gaining a DGSA qualification, professionals can help prevent accidents, avoid fines, and ensure the safety of everyone involved in the transport process. What Does the DGSA Course Cover? Our 5-day classroom DGSA training course at HCPC Training gives a detailed look at the rules for transporting dangerous goods. The course is designed to give candidates both theory and practical knowledge. Here’s what you will learn: ADR Requirements The course covers the ADR rules that explain how dangerous goods must be handled. This includes how substances should be classified, packaged, labelled, and documented. DGSAs must know these steps to avoid mishandling during transport. Dangerous Goods Classification Classifying dangerous goods is one of the most important parts of the training. This ensures goods are sorted correctly based on their dangers. Proper classification helps keep the transport process safe and reduces the risk of accidents. Placarding and Marking of Vehicles Knowing how to place the correct placards and markings is key. This helps identify dangerous goods quickly during transport. You’ll learn how to display the right hazard signs and symbols on vehicles carrying these materials. Documentation Each shipment of dangerous goods must have the right paperwork. In this part of the training, you’ll learn which documents are needed for each consignment. This ensures the transport is smooth and complies with the law. Examination Preparation To become a qualified Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor, you must pass exams. The DGSA exam is split into three parts: Core, Road, and All Classes. You will need to register with SQA for the exams. Our training will fully prepare you for these tests. The DGSA Certification Process After finishing the DGSA training course, candidates must take the DGSA exam. The exam has three parts: Core – This part covers general rules for all dangerous goods. Road – This focuses on the transport of dangerous goods by road. All Classes – A detailed exam on dangerous goods in all UN classes. Exams are held quarterly. You must register directly with SQA for your exam. Once you pass, you will receive your DGSA certificate. This certificate shows your expertise in safely handling the transport of dangerous goods. Cost of the DGSA Course The DGSA course at HCPC Training costs £1,014.00 (including VAT). This covers 5 days of classroom training and all necessary materials. Payment is required at least three weeks before the course starts. There are no refunds for missed or partially attended sessions. The qualification lasts for 5 years. After that, you must take a refresher course and re-certify. Who Should Take the DGSA Course? The DGSA course is for anyone working in logistics, transport, or shipping who deals with dangerous goods. Whether you're part of a company transporting hazardous materials or a consultant advising on safety, this course will help you understand ADR regulations and offer expert compliance advice. Key Roles Include: Transport Managers and Logistics Coordinators. Safety Officers and Regulatory Compliance Experts. Consultants advising on dangerous goods handling. Final Thoughts Becoming a Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor helps improve transport safety. With HCPC Training, you’ll get the qualifications to handle hazardous materials safely and follow all rules.

Cheshire

I enjoyed a very broad experience with Shell UK, spanning logistics and distribution, business-to-business marketing, retail sales, marketing communications and the exploitation of motor sport sponsorships, customer service, operations and career transition. During this time I was also invited to tutor with The Leadership Trust on their Leadership in Management programme. This increased my desire to transform the performance of both executives and senior managers; and by that, to improve organisational performance too. This interest led me to the world of HR and in particular, guiding organisations through down-sizing processes; and supporting people through the redundancy experience – empowering them to become more self-aware and articulate their value to new potential employers. Specialising at executive and senior manager levels, means I make a real difference to them as individuals, drawing out their real values that positively impact on performance, profitability and stakeholder esteem; and therefore benefit new roles or organisations. For over 25 years, I have provided specialist and focused support to executives and senior managers spanning all key disciplines and the entire spectrum of industry, public sector and 3rd sector organisations. My interest is always in finding a better way to help smooth the process; guiding clients in a more professional way through each stage of their career transition – always with high quality and unlimited 1:1 support – and a unique approach supported by technical reasoning and psychological evidence. I may not always have the answer, but I will work tirelessly with you to find it!
