F2

The F2 course trains staff who handle or accept non-dangerous goods, so that they can recognise and rule out the presence of undeclared dangerous goods. It is the safeguard that helps prevent hidden dangerous goods from entering the transport chain as if they were general cargo. San Giorgio delivers it as an ENAC-recognised training organisation, in compliance with IATA DGR and ICAO regulations.

Who it is for. The course is aimed at staff who handle or accept non-dangerous goods and who, for this very reason, must be able to recognise any hidden or undeclared dangerous goods before accepting them.

Training follows the competency-based approach (CBTA), the standard required by ICAO and IATA, focused on building practical operational skills.

Exam and training certificate. There is an exam at the end of the course. Participants who pass the exam receive an ENAC-recognised training certificate, valid for a maximum of 24 months.

• Essential regulatory framework for dangerous goods

By the end of the course, participants will be able to:
