* The German Dangerous Goods Safety Advisor Act (Gefahrgutbeauftragten - Verordnung, GbV), Council Directives 96/35/EC and 2000/18/EC - and the EU Framework Directives for ADR and RID respectively - required Member States to implement legislation to ensure that certain undertakings which transport dangerous goods by road, rail and inland waterway, including the transport related activities of loading and unloading, appoint dangerous goods safety advisers (DGSAs).

In Germany, the GbV requires that companies which process, ship, load or pack dangerous goods are generally under the obligation to appoint a DGSA. Certain exemptions are applicable, for example where dangerous goods are exclusively shipped as limited quantities. 

DGSAs need to have obtained a vocational training certificate (VTC), after undergoing training and successfully completing a written examination approved by the Competent Authority of a Member State. VTCs are mutually recognized in all EU Member States and in any non-EU States which are signatories to RID or ADR.

In Germany, such VTC is required for each mode of transport used or covered by the company. VTC’s are issued after successful completion of a test by the German Chambers of Industry and Commerce (Industrie- und Handelskammern, IHK’s); a prerequisite for undertaking the test is vocational training with a recognized training provider such as LOGAR.

** In many European and Asian states, providers of dangerous goods training for air transport are subject to endorsement requirements of the national Civil Aviation Authority (CAA). In such cases, LOGAR will either acquire such endorsement from the local CAA or recommend another provider who is already in the possession of such CAA accreditation.
