The different Computer Based Training (CBT) software packages are
intended to provide students with high quality instruction in the
49 CFR, IATA/ICAO, IMDG, 40 / 49 CFR and 49 CFR Bulk hazmat training courses
in a convenient and practical way, allowing them to learn the material
at their own pace and take evaluation tests at their convenience.
These CBT software packages are available in both standalone
and web-based versions, both of which are identical in content and divided
in ten different learning modules.
Each module may be accessed by selecting it by name in the main screen.

Main Screen
Modules
With the click of a mouse, the student may select any particular Lesson
within the module, as well as any page within the lesson.
The student may also follow the navigation arrows to take the training
course in sequential order.
Lessons
When the student feels he/she has mastered the content of the material,
he or she may take an evaluation test of the current module. In
order to do so, he or she simply needs to make a click on the "Test"
button within the current lesson.
Tests
Once the test-module opens, a randomly selected pool of questions
related to the curent training module will appear in the screen.
The student will be able to navigate within the questions at his / her
own pace and select an answer.
Once all of the questions have been answered, the student will have the
option to grade the test.
Graded tests
Once the test has been graded, the student will be able to print a hardcopy of
the evaluation. This hardcopy will include: the student's name, the training
agency (GSI Computer Services, Inc), the questions, the answers
given, the correct answers, the test score obtained, and finally a
signature box to be filled by the hazmat coordinator
in charge.
Demonstrations available

training courses: ( You need to load these pages on Internet Explorer 5.0 or

Corporate License for web-based Computer Based Training
This option allows big corporations to train and certify an unlimited number
of employees via the internet or the corporation's local intranet.
Under this option, multiple training sites are linked by a global master
hazmat training administrator. Within each site, each local site
administrator is able to set up training groups, with specific training
requirements according to his/her employees' job functions. (A training
group requires particular students to complete certain training modules
i.e. Shipping Papers with a specific minimum passing score).
The local site administrator is also able to set up students, change their
personal information within the system, make searches, deletions,
monitor student test scores and even set the amount of time a particular
course certificate (i.e. IATA/ICAO) is valid for.
When such certifications expire, the site administrator is also capable of
allowing students to be re-certified while maintaining previous certification
information (expired certifications) on record for an unlimited amount of time.
Site administrator may also print reports reflecting training information
for the students under their site. This includes reports for current
training, expired certifications, and even forecast reports to show
students whose certifications will expire in a certain amount of time.
