  Road Safety Champion Program

Road Safety Champion Program

The Road Safety Champion Program (RSCP) is a nationally-recognized certificate program 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 roads. Aspiring Road Safety Champions take core courses as well as trainings specific to their line of work. When all requirements are met, participants will be awarded a Road Safety Champion Program Certificate.

All webinars are held in Eastern Standard Time. Webinars are held from 9:00 - 11:00 a.m. on the fourth Wednesday of every month.
