Every industry faces distinct compliance hurdles. Here's what we help you overcome.
NCAA drug testing violations carry serious consequences: violations can result in loss of eligibility and competition withholding periods that vary by substance category and offense history. For student-athletes, a positive test—whether from intentional use or inadvertent supplement contamination—can impact professional prospects, scholarship status, and athletic careers. Athletic departments must administer testing programs with procedural rigor that withstands legal appeals, protects institutional compliance standing, and demonstrates commitment to athlete welfare—all while maintaining the speed and discretion competitive programs demand during championship seasons.
NCAA maintains extensive banned substance categories spanning anabolic agents, peptide hormones, stimulants, diuretics, masking agents, and other prohibited substances—with year-round testing permitted for steroids and peptides while other substances face championship-only testing windows. Recent policy changes (including the 2024 modifications to cannabis testing at the national level) require athletic departments to stay current on evolving restrictions, supplement risks, and testing protocols. Athletic departments need testing providers who maintain current knowledge of NCAA Drug-Testing Manual updates, communicate policy changes clearly to athletes and staff, and ensure collection procedures align with the specific substance categories and testing windows applicable to each sport, division, and competition level.
Championship events, playoff qualifications, and critical competition windows demand drug testing results within 24-48 hours—timelines that determine whether star athletes compete, teams advance to postseason tournaments, and programs preserve national rankings. Delayed results or procedural errors during in-competition testing can disqualify teams from championships, forfeit tournament victories, and trigger NCAA investigations that damage institutional reputations and coaching careers. Athletic departments require testing providers with direct laboratory relationships, priority result processing, MRO availability for immediate reviews, and communication systems that deliver verified results before competition windows close—ensuring eligibility determinations protect both competitive integrity and athlete due process rights.
