James Durst Earns CTQP Plant Level 1 Certification

Congratulations to ATS Laboratory Specialist James Durst! He recently passed his CTQP exam and is officially Asphalt Plant Level 1 certified! James joined the ATS team just one month ago after working for over 28 years on paving crews! It's no wonder he earned his certification in LESS THAN 3 WEEKS in the lab!

The certification requires passing a written exam and proficiency exam demonstrating practical skills. This certification covers knowledge of various asphalt testing methods, such as density calculation and ensures test results are reliable and accurate, which is crucial for quality control, dispute resolution and ensuring asphalt pavements meet FDOT specs.
