The purpose of this course is to provide the aviation user with a foundation of knowledge, skills, and abilities, to safely utilize aircraft to accomplish agency missions. Topics include Mission Preparation and Planning, Pilot and Aircraft Briefings, Operational Safety, Post-Flight Duties, and UAS. Note: A-100 now Incorporates A-116 General Awareness Security Training, which is no longer a separate course.

The Aviation Transportation of Hazardous Materials course purpose is to ensure flight safety when transporting hazardous materials (HAZMAT). This includes HAZMAT aboard, attached to, or suspended from government aircraft, under the exclusive direction and operational control of the Department of the Interior (DOI), the US Department of Agriculture's Forest Service (USDA-FS), or other Grantees with a written Grantee Status.

This training complies with the US Department of Transportation (DOT) Regulations General Requirements, whereby agency employees who transport hazardous materials by air must receive training on the requirements and conditions under the terms of the DOT Special Permit-9198.

Topics may include:
- Handling Procedures
- Policy Requirements
- Mishap Notification
- Packaging
- Identifying Hazardous Materials
- Safety Requirements

This course provides an annual overview of the National Transportation Safety Board releasable information from the DOI and USDA-FS aviation mishaps and lessons learned. Instructors authorized to teach this course are required to coordinate with the appropriate agency DOI OAS Chief, Aviation Safety, Training, Program Evaluations & Quality Management, or USDA-FS Regional Aviation Safety Manager (RASM).

For additional USDA-FS information, contact the USDA-FS National Aviation Training Program Manager.

This is the fundamental small UAS course for individuals wanting to become qualified to operate small UAS for the Department of the Interior (DOI)/US Department of Agriculture's Forest Service (USDA-FS). A-450 will utilize small UAS aircraft (less than 55lbs) to provide the basic academic and flight training necessary to conduct missions as Remote Pilot-in-Command (RPIC) for DOI/FS.

Candidates must be nominated by National UAS Program Managers or designee.

Students should meet the prerequisite requirements prior to attending A-450. Some required IAT courses may not be available prior to A-450 training selection, but UAS pilots must complete all IAT training requirements within 6 months of A-450 selection.

Note: For further information, contact your DOI National Aviation Manager or USFS Regional UAS Specialist for guidance regarding how to begin a UAS program.

This course is designed as an introduction to basic concepts of museum collections care and management for DOI employees, collateral duty employees, contractors, and volunteers. This course will help you to identify when it is appropriate and necessary to call a curator, conservator, or specialist.

Description: This BLM 4X4 Safe Driving Program is designed to provide drivers with the knowledge to handle the increased challenges of driving off-highway vehicles. The program will give you a better understanding of the unique characteristics associated with 4X4 vehicles such as:

• Vehicle handling
• Preventive maintenance checks
• Cargo security
• Engaging and disengaging four-wheel drive systems
• Tire chain installation
• Vehicle recovery

You will also better understand the unique characteristics associated with driving vehicles on:

• Unpaved or poorly maintained surfaces
• Sand
• Snow
• Mud, and
• other conditions unique to off-highway driving

This course is strictly knowledge/comprehension base and will address the hands-on application that will occur in the field. Contact your local state safety lead for more information on Instructor-led hands-on training opportunities.
