Transit providers must attend all three sessions in order to receive a certificate.
The training series will provide an overview of the Federal Transit Administration’s drug and alcohol testing program, covering all major topic areas of FTA drug and alcohol program management and compliance. Each three-hour module will explain FTA requirements, examples, best practices, and methods to meet the requirements of 49 CFR Parts 40 and 655. The main topic areas covered include:
- Policy development and implementation.
- Drug and alcohol testing categories.
- Testing procedures.
- Procurement of testing services.
- Employer/supervisor training.
- Record-keeping, contractor/vendor oversight, and more.
The course offers the needed foundation and introduction for any new drug and alcohol program manager who may not have a lot of exposure or training on federal drug and alcohol regulations. There will also be in-depth and detailed discussions and case-studies to support experienced drug and alcohol program managers.
The training is led by Sean Oswald, Chief of Operations for RLS & Associates, Inc. Sean has extensive knowledge and expertise in federal drug and alcohol programs and provides excellent technical assistance and trainings across the country. RLS will provide each attendee with a training materials packet which includes the presentation slides and customizable Drug & Alcohol Program Management Forms for use in achieving compliance and documentation requirements.
