The Lithium Batteries Awareness Training course provides an overview of the hazards associated with lithium ion and lithium metal cells and batteries and the best practices for their safe use, handling, and storage.
Today's lithium cells and batteries are more energy dense than ever, bringing a steadily growing number of higher-powered devices to the market. This increased energy density is accompanied by greater risk, together with the need to manage it more effectively.
The risks posed by lithium cells and batteries generally depend on their type, size, and chemistry. Lithium cells and batteries present both chemical and electrical hazards. Most importantly, the higher energy density and the flammable electrolytes contained within lithium cells and batteries can cause them to overheat and ignite, under certain conditions.
The course will also encompass the emergency procedures and first-aid measures for handling minor incidents and emergencies associated with lithium cells and batteries.

A Final Note
It is important to remember that attending a training course on its own will not make a worker competent. Competence is developed over time by implementing the knowledge acquired through a training course to on-the-job work processes. Therefore, in addition to this online course, it is important that you receive additional on-site training from your employer

Answer:
All our courses are designed to take a specific amount of time. The Lithium Batteries Awareness Training course will take around 1 hour to complete. However, since the course is largely self-paced, some students may get through the course more quickly, while others may take longer to complete their training.
Answer:
Lithium batteries have become a common form of energy source used for powering a range of devices including laptops, smartphones, smart watches, medical equipment, and vehicles. Due to their higher energy density and flammable electrolytes, lithium ion and lithium metal cells and batteries are classified as hazardous materials or hazmat.
According to the United States Department of Transportation (DOT), all hazmat employers and employees who prepare hazardous materials for shipment or engage in the actual commercial transportation of these materials via highway, rail, air, and water must receive the relevant training. The Lithium Batteries Awareness Training course provides an overview of the hazards associated with lithium ion and lithium metal cells and batteries and the best practices for their safe use, handling, and storage. The course also encompasses the emergency procedures and first-aid measures for handling minor incidents and emergencies associated with lithium cells and batteries.
For a broader perspective of the training requirements outlined in Subpart H of Part 172 of the DOT’s Hazardous Materials Regulations (HMR), Section 1.5 of the IATA DGR, and Section 1.3.1 of the IMDG Code, you may enroll in our Shipping Lithium Batteries: Fully Regulated and Excepted Cells and Batteries Training course.
