In high-stakes hazardous materials (hazmat) situations, clear leadership and swift decisions can mean the difference between a contained incident and a widespread disaster. This is where the Hazmat Incident Command (IC) course becomes a true game-changer for organizations across fire departments, healthcare systems, industrial facilities, and emergency services. At Signet North America, we specialize in delivering in-person, scenario-driven hazmat training tailored specifically to your organization’s operational needs.
Our Hazmat IC course equips team leaders with the knowledge, tools, and real-world insight needed to manage complex emergency situations with confidence and control.
What Is the Hazmat IC Course?
The Hazmat IC course is designed to train personnel in charge of leading a hazmat incident response. This includes those responsible for setting up command structures, managing communication across teams, coordinating containment and decontamination efforts, and making key strategic decisions under pressure. Whether it’s a chemical spill, biological threat, or radiological emergency, the person in charge must understand how to assess risks, delegate responsibilities, and align team actions with established safety protocols.
Our course is built around real-world exercises, incident simulations, and interactive learning. We don’t just teach theory—we bring the course to life with practical, immersive activities that prepare your team for the challenges they may face in the field.
Why Incident Command Training Matters
Incident command is the backbone of every successful hazmat response. Without it, even the most well-trained teams can fall into disarray during an emergency. The IC role requires an individual to not only understand hazmat materials and behavior, but also to organize resources, manage personnel, and work within regulatory frameworks.
The H
helps build the leadership and decision-making abilities that are critical in these moments. It prepares participants to step confidently into command roles during incidents where time, clarity, and teamwork are critical. When chaos strikes, the Incident Commander must provide structure—and our training helps ensure they’re ready to do just that.
Who Should Take This Training?
This course is ideal for personnel who may be tasked with leading hazmat operations, including fire officers, emergency managers, industrial safety leads, hospital response coordinators, and any organization member who would assume control during a hazmat event.
If your organization is responsible for protecting people, property, or operations from chemical or hazardous threats, having designated Incident Commanders trained and ready is essential.
How We Deliver Our Hazmat IC Course
Signet North America brings the course directly to your team—on-site, in-person, and customized to your operational environment. We do not conduct public classes or offer online programs. Instead, we partner with organizations that need private group training at their own facilities or designated training sites.
Our team works with you from the beginning to ensure your goals, concerns, and regulatory requirements are built into the training. The result is a high-impact learning experience that doesn’t just tick a compliance box, but enhances the effectiveness and readiness of your entire team.

With over 150 years of combined field and instructional experience, the team at Signet North America understands the challenges responders face during hazmat incidents. That’s why our Hazmat IC course blends technical instruction with field-proven tactics and situational leadership training.
We use props, interactive simulations, and team-based exercises to help your personnel experience the decision-making process in real time. By the end of the course, your Incident Commanders will have not only the knowledge but the confidence to lead when it matters most.
