New Haven Area Special Hazards Team Hazardous Materials Educational Workshop

On behalf of the New Haven Area Special Hazards (NHASH) Team Board of Directors, you are hereby invited to participate in a three-day workshop that will bring together hazardous materials technicians and specialists to enhance the skills, knowledge and ability to safely plan for, respond, mitigate and recover from incidents involving dangerous substances.  Attendees will be engaged in dynamic educational workshops and experience real life practical scenarios.  This free educational opportunity offers hands-on field exercises, a tabletop drill for command level officers and, advanced use of detection technologies. We recognize that training budgets are limited and decisions are based on the value of return on the investment. Therefore, there is no cost to NHASH Team members.  Each day begins with a general presentation which is followed by topic specific breakout sessions.  As you will see by the schedule, this workshop is not about theory or concepts – it is about doing the job on the street.
