We offer Continuing Education Units (CEU's) that are approved by the Florida Board of Professional Engineers.
DESCRIPTION
All personnel involved in construction work zone projects, particularly technicians and field personnel, must have a basic knowledge of temporary traffic control to ensure “safe passage” for workers, motorists, bicyclists and pedestrians. ATSSA’s in-depth Florida Intermediate Training will provide instruction in the proper safety standards to assist in monitoring and recognizing any deficiencies during the course of a temporary traffic control project.
This 16- hour course includes introductory classroom instruction referenced from the FDS (Index 600 Series) and the MUTCD (Part 6). The State of Florida requires this course for all personnel who perform work on Florida state roads and whose duties include the following activities:
- Direct responsibility of replacement of work zone traffic control devices.
- Direct responsibility for field maintenance of work zone traffic control devices.
- Inspection of the placement or operational function of work zone traffic control devices.
- Drafting or electronic generation of work zone traffic control plans.
In addition, *flagging operations will be covered in enough detail that an individual who successfully completes this course will be capable of providing basic training as required by the DOT (details may be found in the MOT Topic No. 625-01010 dated June 2002.)
All ATSSA training programs are conducted by highly qualified instructors who bring numerous years of traffic control experience to the classroom. They present this 2-day class using a state- of- the art Power Point presentation, workshops, hands-on field demonstrations as well as personal anecdotes, observations and references. All students will receive training materials containing Florida specific content, quality standards and workshops organized in one binder for easy future reference.
The attendees will leave this class with practical knowledge that will enable them to assist in making their projects safer for anyone entering the work zone, thus reducing the exposure to injury and possible litigation.
*Completion of this course allows individuals to train flaggers to meet DOT’s requirements.
Training materials may be ordered through ATSSA.
Authorization to train ATSSA Registered Flaggers requires successful completion of the ATSSA Florida Intermediate Level course and ATSSA’s Flagger Instructor Training. (FIT)
