goMDnow Expands Services Launches Online Training Academy

goMDnow, a drug and alcohol testing company based in Charlotte, North Carolina, has expanded its service offerings and launched an online compliance training academy. The company now provides non-DOT oral fluid testing alongside its existing DOT random testing consortium and return-to-duty program services.

The new online Training Academy offers self-paced courses covering a range of topics essential for workplace drug and alcohol testing compliance. These include reasonable suspicion supervisor training, Designated Employer Representative (DER) responsibilities, driver awareness, Clearinghouse compliance, audit preparation, and small-fleet requirements. Learners can complete course assessments and receive course-completion certificates. Employers remain responsible for any additional employer-specific materials, practical requirements, or other obligations that apply to their programs.

In addition to the expanded training options, goMDnow has added non-DOT oral fluid testing to its portfolio. This specimen option complements urine and hair testing for eligible workplace programs. The availability of test panels, collection methods, and locations depends on the selected service and employer requirements. DOT-regulated testing follows the applicable federal requirements, while non-DOT panel choices do not replace those requirements.

goMDnow continues to provide DOT random testing consortium services, return-to-duty drug testing after the required Substance Abuse Professional steps, follow-up testing program support, breath alcohol testing, and physical exam services. Its program support also includes Medical Review Officer review where applicable, observed collections, and FMCSA Drug and Alcohol Clearinghouse assistance and reporting for covered services. The company serves transportation and trucking employers alongside construction, healthcare, aviation, maritime, rail, and delivery businesses.

To help organizations coordinate testing and education, goMDnow has developed new compliance guides addressing common questions about DOT and non-DOT testing, consortium participation, return-to-duty requirements, and workplace testing procedures. The company reports access to more than 25,000 collection locations nationwide, with laboratory services available through Quest Diagnostics, Labcorp, and Clinical Reference Laboratory (CRL), depending on the test selected. Customers can order services online and receive collection instructions. Availability of a particular test varies by location and service; customers should use the collection authorization issued for their order.

goMDnow's expanded offerings are intended to help organizations maintain appropriate testing and education programs through one platform. Service information, course details, and ordering options are available at goMDnow.

With these new developments, goMDnow aims to support employers in navigating the complexities of drug and alcohol testing regulations. The company's comprehensive suite of services and training resources is designed to ensure compliance and provide peace of mind for businesses operating in various industries.
