in a 60-minute period) in the approved instructor development program
for the drug and alcohol driving awareness program to be taught, under
the supervision of a licensed drug and alcohol driving awareness
instructor who is designated by the course provider. Supervision is
considered to have occurred when the licensed instructor is present

other media that pertain directly to the concepts being taught.

purposes. The instruction record shall include the trainee's name,
address, driver's license number, and other pertinent data; the name
and instructor license number of the person conducting the training;
and the dates of instruction, lesson time, and subject taught during
each instruction period. Each record shall also include unit, pre-
and post-program exam grades or other means of indicating the trainee's
aptitude and development. Upon satisfactory completion of the training
program, the instructor trainer conducting the training will certify
a copy of the instruction record for attachment to the trainee's application
for licensing.

records submitted for the TEA-approved instructor development program.

and alcohol driving awareness programs after the original approval
has been granted shall submit the documents designated by the division
director with the appropriate fee. Programs shall be approved before

for an additional program shall not be granted if the school's compliance
is in question at the time of application.

director shall be notified within five working days of discontinuance.

programs.
