Training Reviewed Modules

Reference Materials: Training for Supervisors and Operators

Guidance for Using Reference Materials

Clear Roads has compiled many existing training materials on winter maintenance that will be useful in developing new training modules for the Training for Supervisors and Operators project. The agencies that created these materials have given Clear Roads permission to use or modify them as needed.

To help proposers understand the work that will be needed on this project, Clear Roads has outlined 1) the key points that Clear Roads wants to emphasize for each topic in the new training materials and 2) the specific existing materials that will be most useful to reference when addressing these topics. Note that there are some gaps in the existing materials and the key points identified for each topic. It is anticipated that the contractor would staff the project with one or more winter maintenance experts who could help address those gaps.
