Sec. 1546.409  New screeners: Integrity of screener tests.

    (a) Cheating or other unauthorized conduct. (1) Except as authorized 
by TSA, no person may--
    (i) Copy or intentionally remove a test under this part;
    (ii) Give to another or receive from another any part or copy of 
that test;
    (iii) Give help on that test to or receive help on that test from 
any person during the period that the test is being given; or
    (iv) Use any material or aid during the period that the test is 
being given.
    (2) No person may take any part of that test on behalf of another 
person.
    (3) No person may cause, assist, or participate intentionally in any 
act prohibited by this paragraph (a).
    (b) Administering and monitoring screener tests. (1) Each foreign 
air carrier must notify TSA of the time and location at which it will 
administer each screener readiness test required under Sec. 1544.405 
(d).
    (2) Either TSA or the foreign air carrier must administer and 
monitor the screener readiness test. Where more than one foreign air 
carrier or foreign air carrier uses a screening location, TSA may 
authorize an employee of one or more of the foreign air carriers or 
foreign air carriers to monitor the test for a trainee who will screen 
at that location.
    (3) If TSA or a representative of TSA is not available to administer 
and monitor a screener readiness test, the foreign air carrier must 
provide a direct employee to administer and monitor the screener 
readiness test.
    (4) An foreign air carrier employee who administers and monitors a 
screener readiness test must not be an instructor, screener, screener-
in-charge, checkpoint security supervisor, or other screening 
supervisor. The employee must be familiar with the procedures for 
administering and monitoring the test and must be capable of observing 
whether the trainee or others are engaging in cheating or other 
unauthorized conduct.
