As part of the DOT mandate, you will be required to demonstrate proficiency in DOT Regulations (49 CFR Part 40) and complete the five specific mock collections required of all collectors. As a Specimen Collector Instructor, you will receive detailed resource documents and instructions for training students and observing the mock collections.

Mary-Ann Nuesse –
Once I am trained as a DOT Collector Trainer, do I need students to log into any coursework with your company in order for me to certify them, or do I receive materials that I can use to train others as DOT Collectors?

Hello Mary-Ann.
Aside from giving you useful tools and tips on teaching the federal regulations, we provide you with an instructor manual with printed training resources, as well as PowerPoint slides to to train and certify your students. Some of our instructors choose to put their trainees through our online regulations course and spend their time overseeing the mock collections. We extend our online regulations course to our instructors at a fraction of the cost.

Hello Angel.
This course is designed to learn at your pace. However, we do encourage you to try to get everything done within 30-days. We find student’s who stretch it out over too much time, start to loose the information they learn. The only DOT requirement is that you conduct your mock collections within 30-days of completing the regulations training online. The mock collections are done during a live training event using WebEx. You register for the live training once you complete regulations. I hope this is helpful information.

As the title says, really good course with very nice, experienced, knowledgable people running it. Fabienne helped me with sign up and any questions I had about ordering supplies, it seems like I always get a response with in an hour of me emailing her. Ken is the one who runs the course, the powerpoint slides are great, they are very easy to follow and the information I needed to learn was laid out very well. I did my mock collections with Ken over a video call, I was nervous about it but then when I saw the kind of person Ken is I realized there is no reason to be nervous. He does not want to make things difficult and just wants to see you succeed and make sure that you know all of the information you need to know. My certificate was received immediately after completion of the course via email and a hard copy was received in about two days. I highly recommend this course.

From the moment I made my first call to receive information about the DOT Specimen Collector Instructor Training course I was impressed by the quick response and assistance that was offered to me to get certified asap. The online course was detailed as well as easy to follow along. The training videos were helpful and gave a great visual of the step by step procedures that are required by DOT. Fabienne the Mock Training Instructor was fantastic. She guided you through the process step by step and was able to answer all my questions. I would highly recommend Alcopro

Yes, with your instructor certificate you are able to train others. We also extend to our instructor students discounts on our online regulations training, so they can put their students through the rules and regulations training online and only have to oversee the 5 mock collections.

Angela McNeill –
How does becoming a trainer to train employees benefit my organization? Also do I need to purchase 1 mock specimen for all 5 mocks or just 1? Thanks

Being trained and certified to train others benefits your organization if they have 3 or more employees in need of training. Our online DOT specimen collector training includes regulations training and the 5 mocks and instructor training and resources. The regular DOT specimen collector with mocks includes regulations and the 5 mock tests. You can speak to a training specialist by calling 800.227.9890.

I recently completed my DOT specimen collection and Instructor training program and the program was streamlined from start to finish. The staff at Alcopro are wonderful. My instructor was very knowledgeable and made sure I had received all tools needed to be a successful collector and trainer.
