The Road Safety Champion Program (RSCP) is a nationally recognized certificate program from the National Center on Rural Road Safety 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.
Training participants will complete a series of courses in core safety issues. When all requirements are met, participants will be awarded a Road Safety Champion Program Certificate. (Note: the certificate is not a degree or professional certification.)
The seven core sessions are:
1. Introduction to Road Safety (4/5)
2. Understanding Human Factors (4/12)
3. Introduction to Traffic Safety Culture (4/19)
4. Overview of the MUTCD (5/3)
5. Intersection of Transportation with Public Health and Law Enforcement (5/10)
6. Reading the Roadway (5/17)
7. Safety Analysis Process (5/23 - Thursday)
This webinar series is excellent to bring new hires, elected officials, or community stakeholders up to speed on rural roadway safety. Encourage them to participate.
