Welcome to the most comprehensive and practical training available on DoD Manual 4145.26 (2008) – DoD Contractors’ Safety Manual for Ammunition and Explosives.

Welcome to the most comprehensive and practical training available on DoD Manual 4145.26 – DoD Contractors’ Safety Manual for Ammunition and Explosives.

This course was developed by a veteran with direct experience enforcing the manual and conducting DoD acquisition explosives safety surveys at DoD Contractor facilities. You will not just learn the contractual safety requirements — you will better understand the spirit and intent behind every key paragraph and gain the confidence to implement the needed controls to demonstrate a demonstrable robust safety program.

Whether you are a contracting officer, safety professional, program manager, subcontractor, or preparing for a DoD survey (e. g. DCMA, Buying Activity, etc.), this course equips you with the knowledge needed to help you demonstrate compliance with DFARS 252.223-7002/7003, DoD Manual 4145.26 (2008) and implement controls to protect personnel, property, public and mission success.

By completing this course, you will be able to:

  • Explain the chapter and key paragraph of DoDM 4145.26 (2008), including requirements and underlying intent
  • Knowledge to assist in preparation for and respond effectively to DCMA explosives safety surveys
  • Earn an official certificate documenting your mastery — valuable evidence for contracts, audits, and professional development

How to Navigate This Course

Lessons: Each lesson includes plain-language explanations, spirit & intent narratives (for information only) and access to downloadable resources.

Quizzes: Each lesson contains quizzes and a final exam. Passing score: 85% is required to obtain the certificate.

Progress: Complete lessons and quizzes sequentially — your dashboard tracks everything.
