Road Safety Champion Program Core Modules
Wednesdays, January through March 2025
11:00 am – 1:00 pm PT
Join the National Center for Rural Road Safety (NCRRS) on Wednesdays from 11:00 am – 1:00 pm PT this Winter for all Core Modules of the Road Safety Champion Program (RSCP). For full details of available core modules 1-7, access the NCRRS bulletin.
RSCP Core Module #1: Introduction to Road Safety
January 22, 2025
Get an overview of safety trends and a national understanding of roadway safety. Also, discuss techniques for safety collaboration, the importance of prioritizing safety over other considerations, and how an individual can become a Road Safety Champion.
RSCP Core Module #2: Anatomy of a Crash – Understanding Human Factors
January 29, 2025
11:00 am – 1:00 pm PT
This course will equip human factors for attendees to better consider the capabilities and limitation of road users and incorporate them into policies and practices. Knowing how road users interact with their vehicle, the roadway, and other road users can also provide useful insights for decision making for construction and maintenance personnel, planners, engineers, public health professionals, and law enforcement.
RSCP Core Module #3: Introduction to Traffic Safety Culture
February 5, 2025
11:00 am – 1:00 pm PT
Learn why growing positive traffic safety culture can significantly improve road safety in communities and nationwide. Participants will leave the training better understanding the elements that shape traffic safety culture, how those factors interact to affect human behaviors, strategies that can be implemented to improve traffic safety culture among various groups, and ideas about how participants can use their role (and the role of others) in growing a positive traffic safety culture.
After the Core Modules, the Maintenance & Construction (M&C) and Planning & Engineering (P&E) career focused pathway modules begin on Wednesdays starting March 19, 2025. Information on each of these modules is provided on the Center Trainings website.
