Substance
Abuse Professional's Role and Responsibilities
Effective
January 1, 2004, professionals are prohibited from providing DOT substance abuse
evaluations unless they have met the revised criteria outlined in the DOT
regulations (49 CFR, Part 40, Subpart O, 40.281). The revised criteria requires
the substance abuse professional to receive training in nine areas of study and
to successfully complete an examination related to the training.
This
three day event, includes two days of training (12 CEU’s) related to the nine
(9) domains of education required by the DOT regulations followed by the
administration of the IC&RC written examination on the morning of the third
day.
Participants
who successfully complete the training and receive a passing score on the
written IC&RC DOT /SAP examination will meet the revised DOT/SAP
qualification criteria.
The
two days of training will provide participants with a comprehensive

define the role and responsibilities of the substance abuse professional.
