FRA Post-Accident Testing Determination

When a qualifying rail event happens, the clock is already running — and federal post-accident toxicological testing is not optional. This self-paced course trains railroad supervisors, managers, and compliance staff to instantly recognize the four §219.201 qualifying events, make the required good-faith determination as soon as practicable, and get regulated employees to a blood-and-urine collection using FRA’s kit and designated laboratory. You finish with an audit-ready, QR-verifiable certificate documenting your competency.

What this training covers

  • 12 self-paced sections built around the FRA supervisor’s three jobs: recognize → determine → collect
  • The four §219.201 qualifying events explained with rail scenarios: major train accident, impact accident, fatal train incident, and passenger train accident with injury
  • How FRA post-accident testing differs from FMCSA and FTA — mandatory federal testing, not a discretionary employer call
  • Blood and urine specimen collection under §219.205 using FRA’s post-accident kit sent to FRA’s designated laboratory
  • The §219.201(b) carve-outs: grade-crossing, trespasser, and intervening-cause exceptions you must check
  • The good-faith determination under §219.203 — who decides, how fast, and how to document it
  • The post-accident use prohibition, refusals under §219.104, and audit-ready recordkeeping
  • A 25-question final exam at an 80% passing score and a QR-verifiable certificate of completion

What’s on your audit-ready certificate

  • The exact regulatory citation (49 CFR Part 219 · Subpart C)
  • Holder’s name and final test score, printed on the certificate
  • A unique ID and QR-coded verification URL — auditors confirm authenticity in seconds at testrightacademy.com/verify
  • Completion date with 12-month validity and a renewal reminder before it expires
Who needs this: Railroad supervisors, trainmasters, managers, and drug-and-alcohol program staff at any FRA-regulated railroad who may have to recognize a qualifying event and set post-accident testing in motion.
