Since February 1977, the American Traffic Safety Services Association has provided quality roadway safety education and training to our industry. ATSSA’s progressive and innovative approach to education transitioned what was once known in our industry as ATSSA training into the ATSSA Roadway Safety Training Institute (RSTI) The institute provides a “dynamic” selection of comprehensive training and certification programs to our industry.
By combining traditional classroom training, international partnerships, training partners and training programs, we continue our mission of improving and promoting the safety of the motorists, pedestrians, and roadway workers.
The benefits that an individual, company, organization or agency receives by attending ATSSA’s roadway safety training courses or pursuing ATSSA certification are tremendous. Many states now require training or certification to work on our nation’s roadways and ATSSA’s Roadway Safety Training Institute is a recognized leader in this field.

COMPREHENSIVE INSPECTION TRAINING This training consists of 14 Power Point modules geared towards specific topics all on one convenient CD-ROM. This course is designed to lead the participants from the very basic to the more complex aspects of inspection, documentation and quality standards. Each module was developed to last approximately 30-60 minutes. This course is intended for highway agency inspectors, project engineers, traffic control supervisors and others responsible for inspection activities. This is a perfect choice for new employees or as a periodic refresher series.
All of the modules are included on one CD-ROM.

ATSSA is in the process of developing a training course that addresses the unique issues related to work zones in urban areas. In these areas, meeting the standards and guidelines is no easy task. Often, tapers and buffers do not fit, and signs have to compete with the urban environment (parked vehicles, vegetation, other signs, etc.). We would like to illustrate some of these work zones and their challenges in this upcoming course. We are asking for your help in providing us photos to help us illustrate these challenges. Photos of both good and bad setups are welcomed. If you are in doubt, please send it. If you desire, your company can be listed as a source for the picture and be shown in the PowerPoint.
