Recerts

B.A.C. Datamaster Recertification

This is a three hour TELECLASS COURSE designed to refresh the BAC Datamaster Operator on procedural and legal matters applicable to the proper operation of the BAC Datamaster Instrument.

Because of the technicality of the subject matter, and required test, this teleclass must be viewed live.  Taping the program to be shown at a future date is prohibited.

Who should attend

Currently certified operators whose date of expiration has not yet passed. Note:  SLED's policies and procedures state that once an operator's certification expires, they MUST attend the initial certification course in order to be certified again. You must carefully monitor your certification to avoid expiration.

Participants MUST attend the entire time of the Teleclass and take a ten question test.  To be recertified, each participant must obtain a score of 70% on the previously mentioned test.
