The 2014 National LTAP/TTAP Conference will be held July 21-24 at the St. Louis Hilton at the Ballpark in downtown St. Louis and hosted by NTLAPA Region 7!
The National Local Technical Assistance Program Association (NLTAPA) holds their annual conference to share the latest knowledge, skills and materials that enhance the performance of its Centers. NLTAPA works with all local and rural road partners, customers and stakeholders, to develop Center staff competencies, and support interest of NLTAPA members.
LTAP and TTAP centers provide training, coordination and technical services to local transportation agencies, tribal governments and other transportation related entities across the country. The services these programs offer are provided to a wide range of personnel responsible for construction, maintenance, infrastructure management, and safety on local transportation systems – from elected officials, engineers, and operations managers to crew foremen and laborers. In 2012 the LTAP/TTAP program held over 5,000 workshops and trained over 159,000 participants.
Highlights for this year’s conference:
- Safety Circuit Rider Programs – how to start one and where to find funding
- Bridge Issues for Local Governments
- Technical, Grant and Proposal Writing
- Advisory Boards – How do you use your Advisory Board?
- Center Best Practices sharing Pecha Kucha style
And many more!
