1 September 2026

Crewe / Online

The five-year gap between DGSA requalification’s and the fact that most people only use very specific provisions on a day-to-day basis often means that candidates are less prepared than they would like.   To aid those considering requalification, the Chemical Business Association has designed a two-day workshop to update and refresh all aspects of the ADR chapters and provide specific exam guidance and question practice.   The exam is an ‘open book’ format and so all the information necessary is at the candidate’s fingertips. However, candidates also need to understand ‘how to apply the knowledge’, ‘what the markers will be looking for’ and ‘how to reference the answers’
