The Drug and Alcohol Testing for CDL Drivers course is an interactive online training program that provides CDL drivers with information on the Federal Transportation Employee Testing Act and how it affects transportation employees. The course is provided in partnership with MARCOM, a top-rated safety and compliance training content provider.

Everyone knows that alcohol, drugs, and driving do not mix, but impaired drivers are still a major cause of accidents. With 42,795 fatalities and 1.5 million injuries in 2022 in the United States alone, keeping commercial drivers who are impaired by drugs or alcohol off the roads and getting them help for their substance use disorders is more important than ever.

The course covers DOT/FMCSA drug and alcohol regulations, drug and alcohol testing basics, how drug and alcohol tests are conducted, driver removal and return-to-duty, getting help for substance use disorders, and the recent approval of oral fluids testing as a testing method.

The course uses a combination of audio, full-motion video, text, and colorful graphics. It is divided into logical sections so information is easily understood and retained. The course is 100% online and accessible on desktop computers, tablets, and smartphones.
