Drug and Alcohol Program Manager Training- Pasadena

The DAPM Training is for Transit systems and State DOT representatives responsible for FTA drug and alcohol regulation oversight.

About this Event

The Drug & Alcohol Program Management & Compliance training is designed to focus on the drug and alcohol regulations governing a transit system’s compliance under the United States Department of Transportation (49 CFR Part 40) and the Federal Transit Administration (49 CFR Part 655). This training will provide a comprehensive overview of the FTA Drug and Alcohol testing program, covering all major topic areas of FTA drug & alcohol program management and compliance.

The course will cover subject matter referencing USDOT-FTA drug & alcohol program management requirements, examples, best practices, and methods to meet the requirements of 49 CFR Parts 40 and 655. The main topic areas covered include USDOT-FTA drug and alcohol testing policy development and implementation; drug and alcohol testing categories; testing procedures; procurement of testing services; employer/supervisor training; record-keeping, contractor/vendor oversight, and others.

The comprehensive nature of this course makes it useful for both new and experienced drug and alcohol program managers (DAPMs)/designated employer representatives (DERs). The course offers the needed foundation and introduction for any new drug and alcohol program manager who may not have a lot of exposure/training on the USDOT-FTA drug & alcohol regulations; however, the course also provides and allows time for, the in-depth and detailed discussions/case-studies often sought after by the most seasoned and experienced drug and alcohol program managers.

This training is also designed to keep transit staff, State DOT, and other transit administrators/program managers up-to-date and knowledgeable about current compliance issues. Each attendee will be provided a training materials packet which includes the presentation slides and customizable Drug & Alcohol Program Management Forms for use in achieving compliance/documentation requirements.
