Examinations

The written and field examination will be mandatory for all new certification candidates.  ​

 

Independent Assurance (IA) Program

In response to FHWA recommendations, GDOT's Independent Assurance (IA) Program has been modified to a System Basis Program.  As such, all active certified Level 1 and level 2 QCT Technicians are required to participate in the IA Program.  This consists of sampling and testing proficiency evaluations when scheduled by GDOT. 

Any active technician who, for whatever reason, does not have at least one satisfactory IA Evaluation within their three year certification period cannot renew with only training hours or by retaking the written exam and must be completely certified again.  If your certification period is ending and you have not had an IA evaluation, it is recommend that you contact the IA Program at least six months before your expiration date to schedule an evaluation. 

If you have any questions about the IA process, please contact the Quality Assurance Branch Supervisor at (404) 608-4781.
