The ‘premier hazmat event’ is back for 2022, taking place from 18 to 19 May 2022 at the Crowne Plaza, Stratford-upon-Avon, UK with a packed programme to educate and inform fire-protection and firefighting professionals involved in chemical incident response.
Now in its 13th year, NCEC’s Hazmat 2022 is well established as the event to attend. The two-day conference draws upon the knowledge and experience of a broad range of hazmat professionals and industry leaders, including NCEC’s emergency responders and chemical experts.
Attending Hazmat 2022 will help you keep up to date with hazardous materials response, chemical exposure monitoring, emergency planning and developments in legislation and technology. It gives you the best opportunity to deepen your understanding of these issues and, more importantly, provides you practical ways to address them through:
- Learning from hazmat professionals and industry leaders, including internationally recognised speakers.
- Learning from case-study examples.
- Participating in practical workshops.
- Networking with like-minded professionals.
- Sharing best practices.
Maria Stearn, NCEC’s Project Manager for Hazmat, said: ‘After a two-year break, we are delighted to be able to once again present the Hazmat conference. We are really looking forward to seeing everyone in person. We have an exciting and varied programme to make this a must-attend event for everyone in the hazmat industry.’
