Overview

JB TestPrep: Hazardous Materials Success is a dynamic program designed to prepare students to sit for Hazardous Materials certification examinations by including the same type of questions they will likely see on the actual examination.

It provides a series of self-study modules, organized by chapter, offering practice examinations and simulated certification examinations using multiple-choice questions. All questions are page referenced to Hazardous Materials Awareness and Operations for remediation to help students hone their knowledge of the subject matter. Students can begin the task of studying for Hazardous Materials Awareness and Operations certification examinations by concentrating on those subject areas where they need the most help. Upon completion, students will feel confident and prepared to complete the final step in the certification process--passing the examination.

JB TestPrep: Hazardous Materials Success not only meets but exceeds the competencies as outlined in the 2008 edition of NFPA 472, Standard for Competence of Responders to Hazardous Materials/Weapons of Mass Destruction Incidents.
