# Responder to Hazardous Materials Incidents (JOIFF.**HMR**)  

The JOIFF Responder to Hazardous Materials Incidents (JOIFF.HMR) programme is a comprehensive pathway to the knowledge and skills of emergency responders who may have to deal with hazardous materials incidents.

For people who are already technically competent, the programme provides the skills to prepare for, deal with and evaluate the progress of incidents involving hazardous materials in the response area.

The programme consists of seven separate units with multiple elements.

Elements within the JOIFF-accredited Responder to Hazardous Materials Incidents programme are:

- Personal Protective Equipment (PPE)
- Responding to a hazardous materials incident
- Preserving evidence

*Full success requires the student to engage in practical work and considerable individual research and study. On successful completion the student is awarded a JOIFF Responder to Hazardous Materials Incidents Certificate and can use the professional post nominal JOIFF.HMR.*

## The JOIFF eLearning programmes

JOIFF accredited eLearning programmes have built-in flexibility, allowing our students to access on computers or via smart devices. This enables students to reference and  apply their learned knowledge directly in the workplace.

Each programme offers a tailored learning path at the appropriate level of training. Students are free to work according to their own schedule including in their workplace – a huge benefit for organisations that work shift patterns or at multiple locations.  
   
Students need to provide evidence of each of the elements of each of the units completed, creating a traceable system of assessment and growing competence. It is not necessary to follow the elements and units in sequence – how the work on the programme is completed is at the discretion of site management/the student.  
   
The student’s work on each unit is reviewed by an assessor with the relevant background, competence and experience, and the work is externally verified by Fulcrum Consultants. Each student who successfully completes a programme is awarded an internationally-recognised JOIFF professional qualification confirming their new level of competence.
