Proficiency Demonstration ONLY

Drug & Alcohol Screening

This course may be used for Initial training OR the 5-Year Recertification training.

This is only used when the “Qualification Training” has already been completed.

Per regulations, a trainee must complete a “Proficiency Demonstration” (Mock Collections) within 30 days of finishing the “Qualification Training”.

Proficiency Demonstration:

  • Mock Specimen Collection

Conduct 5 mock collections covering common and uncommon collection scenarios. This face-to-face proficiency demonstration is performed with a TeamCME representative via video conference, and usually takes about 90 minutes to complete.

Cancellation/Rescheduling without 24+ hour notice will result in a $25 fee.

Prepare by practicing on family or staff members by doing at least 5 practice collections prior to your Mock Collections. (Please use photocopies of the Chain of Custody forms for practice.)

On the day of your Proficiency Demonstration you will need the following:
  • 6 Split Collection Kits (These will be sent to you upon purchasing the training course.)
  • Have a person with you to act as your “donor” for the mock collections. If no one is available, the mock collections cannot be completed
  • 6 Federal Chain of Custody Forms

  • A computer monitor video camera
  • Eliminate all potential distractions and establish an area that will be quiet and without interruptions

Students must have a LIFELOC Breath Alcohol Tester available to perform the mock collections.
