Dangerous Goods and Sustainability in Logistics Courses Available at Preferred Rates through CIFFA and CITT Partnership
CITT and CIFFA have announced an agreement in which CITT members get preferred pricing on CIFF's Dangerous Goods training courses
CITT – Canada’s Logistics Association – has announced a new initiative with its industry ally CIFFA to provide preferred rates on learning opportunities to each other’s membership.
Under the agreement, employees of CIFFA members are able to take any or all 3 of CITT’s highly acclaimed Environmental Sustainability in Canadian Logistics microcredential courses at a preferred rate – earning a CITT microcredential upon completion of all three courses. CIFFA members will be provided with a coupon code via email as part of CIFFA’s announcement of the agreement.
The three courses are:
• Introduction to Sustainability in Transportation & Distribution
• Sustainability Challenges and Solutions in Transportation & Distribution
• Technologies Supporting Sustainability in Transportation & Distribution
CITT members receive exclusive preferred pricing on CIFFA’s TDG-compliant, fully online and on-demand Dangerous Goods certification programs.
These highly practical, industry-relevant courses in Air and Ocean Dangerous Goods (IMDG Code) certify professionals to accept and process, dangerous goods shipments in compliance with regulatory standards.
Instructions on how to access this discount will be made available to CITT members both via an announcement email, and can also be accessed through the members-only section of the CITT website.
“This initiative truly embodies the spirit of cooperation we aspire to with our industry alliance partners,” says Pina Melchionna, President & CEO of CITT. “Leveraging each other’s strengths and professional development opportunities for our members helps makes the industry better-trained and more competitive. Each association has its areas of expertise – but ours is a complex profession and the roles of people in supply chain logistics often blur lines.” She elaborates, “CIFFA has been a long-time collaborator and ally of CITT, and we’re thrilled to continue to work together to the direct benefit of our members and the sector.”
“The collaboration between CIFFA and CITT reflects a shared commitment to strengthening Canada’s logistics profession,” said Stephen McDermott, Director of Education at CIFFA and Vice President & Chief Learning Officer at TraversEd. “By expanding access to CITT’s sustainability-focused programs, we are giving our members the practical tools they need to respond to rising ESG expectations and regulatory demands. At the same time, broadening the reach of TDG-compliant Dangerous Goods certification across air and ocean modes is essential — compliance and safety are foundational to operational excellence and global credibility.
