The Truckload Carriers Association (TCA) and Impirica, invite you to participate in a unique, two-part webinar series that explores the cutting-edge in impairment risk assessment for the trucking industry. As we navigate increasing safety and compliance demands, this series offers tools and insights that can make a real difference for your fleet’s safety and operational integrity.
This series is designed to help fleet managers, safety officers, and industry professionals understand and measure cognitive impairment risk—going beyond traditional screening methods.
Part 1: Understanding Impairment – Evaluating Cognitive Performance to Measure Workplace Risk
November 12 – 1 p.m. ET
This session will provide an in-depth understanding of impairment beyond testing for substance use, focusing on cognitive functions critical for safe driving in the trucking industry.
Participants will learn how impairment can affect risk levels and operational safety, particularly for North American truckload carriers. The webinar will explore disruptive technology, such as scientifically validated cognitive assessments, that help identify and mitigate risks. By defining impairment and understanding its state in the U.S., attendees will gain insights into how these tools can be used to safeguard their fleets and enhance overall operational efficiency.
Participants will:
- Define impairment and its various forms
- Learn the current state of impairment in the trucking industry.

Part 2: The Power of Cognitive Testing—A Wholistic View of Impairment Risk
November 19 – 1 p.m. ET
Building on the first session, this interactive webinar offers a practical demonstration of how impairment risk is measured and managed.
Participants will have the opportunity to experience the ExceleRATE assessment themselves, providing firsthand insights into how the technology evaluates critical cognitive functions essential for safe driving. The results gathered between sessions will be analyzed and discussed, highlighting how these insights can be leveraged to reduce risk and enhance safety protocols within trucking operations.
Participants will:
- See cognitive testing in action with a hands-on assessment.
- Learn to interpret results and respond to impairment risk effectively.
- Understand how to integrate cognitive testing into your safety strategy.
By attending both sessions and engaging with the assessment, participants will gain a complete understanding of the potential of cognitive testing in shaping safer, more efficient operations.
Participants will:
