FTA Substance Abuse Training Sessions
FTA will be hosting Substance Abuse Training in the coming months. This one-day seminar is designed to provide essential facts and information to facilitate employers' compliance with DOT's 49 CFR Part 40 and FTA's 49 CFR Part 655. A high-level overview of the regulation will be discussed, as well as how employers may treat both over-the-counter and prescription drugs. There will also be a discussion of the new MIS form and interactive sessions to review handling certain scenarios (e.g., a mock collection, etc.). Any new issues or regulatory interpretations will also be addressed. Your transit agency substance abuse program managers and human resource managers are encouraged to attend. The two closest host locations for this training are scheduled to be held in Overland Park, KS on November 13, 2003, and Sioux Falls, SD on April 20, 2004. Fellowships will be offered for this training as long as your application is submitted in a timely manner to Melissa Davis. Please click on the link below to register on line for this training.
