Montana LTAP Program highlights

Montana LTAP Safety Certification Program Update on cooperative efforts to develop a Certification program for Transportation Safety, referred to as a Local Road Safety Certificate in cooperation with WTI’s National Center for Rural Road Safety and NACE.

Montana LTAP In 2017 the following occurred: The National Center for Rural Road Safety (Safety Center) put together a report entitled “Development Materials for a Local Maintenance Personnel Rural Road Safety Recognition Program.” Also, the National Association of County Engineers (NACE) began laying the groundwork for a Local Road Safety Certificate.

Local Road Safety Certificate Also in 2017, the West Region Transportation Workforce Center (WRTWC) received a grant to work on developing a national implementation plan for transportation safety career pathways.

Local Road Safety Certificate The WRTWC conducted research and worked with an advisory group over the first year of the project to understand needs of the profession. These were the safety training priorities: road construction maintenance engineering and design staff

Local Road Safety Certificate Also, the National Association of County Engineers (NACE) began laying the groundwork for a Local Road Safety Certificate. You can see that there are many parallel efforts here….

Local Road Safety Certificate At the end of 2017, both NACE and WRTWC approached the Safety Center about the need for safety training module development. In 2018, the three entities began working together towards the same goal of developing a Local Road Safety Certificate. The newest version of the framework incorporates/melds the previous work done by all three entities.

Local Road Safety Certificate VISION The vision (as laid out by NACE) is to “eliminate fatal and serious crashes from all public roads.” MISSION The mission (as laid out by NACE) is “promoting safety through professional development of local road officials utilizing a comprehensive safety educational initiative.”

Local Road Safety Certificate OBJECTIVE The objective (as laid out by NACE) is to ensure that “the core competencies for local road officials and safety professionals are intended to provide the foundation of baseline knowledge for safety education and professional development. The competencies represent the minimum set of core knowledge, skills, and abilities to begin functioning effectively in the local road safety field.”

Local Road Safety Certificate The audience is Local road officials focused on, Road design Operations Engineering Construction Maintenance Management

Local Road Safety Certificate The framework is split into 5 safety career pathways: Leadership Planning, Design, Operations & Data Analysis Construction & Maintenance Public Health Law Enforcement

Local Road Safety Certificate Next steps are: A survey of NACE members to ensure training topics are correctly categorized. A detailed template for each training title including: brief description, mapping back to the core competencies, learning objectives, and existing trainings that can be used/modified

Local Road Safety Certificate Next steps are: Identifying or developing a set of training courses for each career path outlined above. Developing a learning management system so personnel can track coursework taken and completed towards attainment of the certificate. Identifying opportunities to coordinate with degree programs (like the Road Maintenance Associates Degree program being developed by CDOT) to offer course credit
