Extra Proficiency Samples
Extra proficiency samples (XPSs) are available for sale in limited quantities. Please see pricing information below. XPSs may be purchased for training of technicians, verification of testing or equipment, inter-laboratory studies, and for addressing accreditation issues related to proficiency sample testing. Please note that Soil and Aggregate XPSs purchased to resolve AASHTO Accreditation Program (AAP) issues related to proficiency testing will only include one sample, rather than two. Ratings sheets will not be created by AASHTO re:source for any XPSs. Unofficial ratings will be calculated by AASHTO re:source only for XPSs purchased to resolve AAP issues related to proficiency testing, as those samples are shipped without sample round identification information. Ratings for all other XPSs must be determined by the participating laboratory based on published sample round analysis information for the specific samples purchased. Payment is required before extra samples will be shipped.
Please direct inquiries to AASHTO re:source as follows:
