Key highlights on regulations, policies, and program funding for the transportation professional
The National Center for Rural Road Safety (NCRRS) announced its latest training schedule for its Road Safety Champion Program (RSCP), a nationally recognized certificate program designed to build a knowledgeable, safety minded workforce responsible for operating, maintaining, and designing local roads.
"Road Safety Champions" prioritize safety and are motivated to implement safety improvements that reduce fatalities and serious injuries on rural and local roadways. RSCP trainees that complete a series of courses in core and specialized safety topics become eligible to receive an RSCP Certificate ... earning the title of Road Safety Champion!
RSCP is open to all staff from transportation, public health, and law enforcement agencies who have an interest in roadway safety but are not safety experts.
Starting January 13, NCRRS will host its 7 core RSCP modules as well as 4 different pathway programs. Each 2-hour session is free to attend and completion goes towards your requirements to become RSCP-certified. These courses may be taken out-of-turn and completed any time in the future when available.
