Managing Hazardous Materials

Managing Hazardous Materials was developed to reflect the core knowledge that is required for practice in this field. While no single book or reference includes the entire scope of knowledge covered on IHMM certification examinations, this book is an excellent study guide when combined with your practical experience and knowledge of current regulations. The text, written by CHMMs and other experts, is an inclusive professional reference. Look to Managing Hazardous Materials to define the profession and shape the discipline for years to come.
