The Hazardous Materials (HAZMAT) First Receiver Awareness Course provides foundational knowledge for personnel who may encounter or support individuals exposed to hazardous substances during an emergency. The course is designed for healthcare providers, emergency responders, and other professionals involved in incident management, regardless of organizational or national context.

This course provides an introduction to Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear (CBRN) preparedness and response for medical and healthcare facility personnel at all levels. Emphasis is placed on understanding CBRN hazards, response frameworks, and the integration of medical operations within incident management systems. Participants will examine the roles and responsibilities of medical staff during CBRN incidents, including recognition of contamination, implementation of protective measures, coordination of decontamination and triage operations, and continuity of care in a contaminated environment.

We invite you to participate in a free, webinar to learn how to create economic resilience for the business community. The pandemic has highlighted the importance of a whole community approach to resilience, and the need to understand how disaster-related risks and vulnerabilities can impact our supply chains, employment, and local economy. Collaboration between the business community and economic development organizations can strengthen economic resilience.

ASG has designed a 2.5-hour online course to introduce the NFPA 1620 Standard for Pre-Incident Planning and provide practical ways to implement it in your workplace. Pre-Incident Plans are vital to overall community preparedness for hazardous materials incidents and bridge the preparedness gap between the private sector businesses and public sector first responders.

ASG has developed a 3-day Advanced Workshop to help organizations build a deeper understanding of the NFPA 1620 Standard for Pre-incident Planning, how it applies to their organization, and how to develop & implement it.

We walk organizations through our 3-day program, helping them with each step in the process to ensure their health and safety professionals understand how to implement Pre-incident Plans for all their high-risk facilities.

Emergency Managers need the necessary tools to plan for all hazards based on risk. Hazard Vulnerability Assessments (HVA) enable Emergency Managers to identify the hazards/risks that could lead to complex mass casualties and disruptions to hospital operations. This course will empower Emergency Managers to conduct an HVA and apply the results into the hospital’s EOP.

Studies into work-related health risks show that poor ergonomics in your office workspace can lead to serious long-term health issues. ASG's online office ergonomics training helps businesses reduce these work-related health risks through a flexible, online learning format with the option for virtual workspace assessments and consultation from one of our Industrial Hygienists.

The CBRN Challenge™ was created by ASG as an innovative approach to build integrated CBRN response capabilities for CBRN/Hazmat teams. This 3-5 day program will focus on sharpening all-hazards response capabilities and concludes with friendly, competitive field-based CBRN challenges so teams can put their skills to the test to see who is the best.

This course will teach you about the common Hazardous Materials being purchased, stored, used, and transited through your airport. You will learn about the characteristics, signs, symptoms, and human effects of the various Hazardous Materials. You will also learn about the methods for selecting the proper PPE based on the type of Hazmat incident and the correct donning/doffing procedures for the three levels of Hazmat PPE.

This course will provide you with a more in-depth knowledge about the practical elements of Hazmat incidents. You will be provided the knowledge and skills needed to understand Hazardous/CBRN substances and the risks associated with them in an incident. You will also learn about the types and UN classifications of hazardous materials, human effects, and public protective measures.

Confidence in one’s Hazmat detection equipment is critical during an incident response. This course provides responders with training in using detection equipment in practical situations and interpreting the results so the proper actions can be taken to minimize the impact of the hazard. Responders will also learn about incident management systems and strategies for handling incidents.

This course will teach you about various tactics, techniques, and procedures (TTPs) for responding to Hazmat hazards that you may encounter. These TTPs include facility surveying, hazard analysis, plume modeling, and many more. This course also includes 5 days of life-like Hazmat Response scenarios to put your skills to the test.

This specialized course provides Hazmat Officers solid leadership and decision-making skills no matter what an incident throws at them. Training includes best practices for dealing with high-stress hazmat incidents. It also covers situational awareness and decision-making skills.

An introduction to HICS for all levels of medical and facilities staff regardless of their roles or responsibilities during a disaster. Focuses on learning the framework of HICS and how it is used to manage disaster response within a medical facility. General medical staff will learn potential ways they may be used during disaster response efforts.

Provides an in-depth look into operational aspects of HICS during disaster response. Emergency responders must be fully aware of the various roles within the HICS, how HICS enables the management of incidents that expand complexity, and how HCIS practically works within the scope of the hospital’s Emergency Operations Plan.

Equips HICS leaders with the knowledge, confidence and practice implementing HICS and using the various recourses available. This course will introduce and operationalize the Hospital Command Center and how it is utilized to coordinate and assign recourses during a crisis.

Effective exercise design, development and implementation is critical to building disaster preparedness capacity for medical emergency responders. Plans, training, and certification alone fail to verify capabilities, you need to exercise what you intend to do during an incident. Effective exercises validate plans, equipment operations, personnel skills, and training. This course will equip you with the knowledge, skills, resources, and best practices for designing, implementing, and evaluating effective exercises to ensure continuous improvement.

Leadership during a crisis can be challenging and stressful. To navigate the crisis successfully, crisis leaders must understand the operational environment, decision making models, methods for overcoming stress and how to process large volume of data. This course gives leaders skills and tools including situational awareness, decision models and countering the effects of stress.

Stress affects all aspects of our lives. Work-related stress is no different. When we face stressful situations at work, they not only affect our job performance but also impact our families, friends and overall capacity to positively contribute to our spheres of influence.

ASG's "Managing Work-Related Stress" course aims to give employees the tools to reduce, manage and overcome work-related stress with proven and helpful best practices.

As COVID-19 continues to spread, state leaders have realized the vital role businesses play in slowing the spread of the virus. Many states have begun requiring all businesses to provide staff with general workplace safety training for COVID-19. Several states have also passed COVID-19 Emergency Temporary Standards requiring exposure risk assessments and Pandemic Response plans to be written and implemented.
