ITS Standards Training Modules

The ITS Professional Capacity Building Program (ITS PCB) is pleased to offer FREE ITS standards training. This 64-module series (listed in the table below) is for practitioners in state and local highway agencies and transit agencies who seek the skills needed to procure, test, implement, and operate standards-based systems and devices. Consultants, system designers, integrators, and testers will also find the training informative.

Additionally, a 25-module training series on standards used in ITS transit deployments is available to the transit community free of charge. These modules were developed with partners in the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) and with support from the American Public Transit Association (APTA).

To get started, click on the title of the module you would like to view. Register once and then view any module, any time. After you register, simply enter your email address to view additional modules. No need to register again!
