Through a partnership between The Public Services Health and Safety Association (PSHSA) and The Infrastructure Health and Safety Association (IHSA), Traffic Control in Temporary Work Zones training for supervisors and workers has been reimagined with intu microlearning.
Traffic control training online at your own pace
This self-paced digital program provides traffic control personnel easy and reliable access to the safety and regulatory standards knowledge and practical application they need to ensure workers are protected. Through intu’s microlearning approach, content is consistently reinforced to solidify and extend knowledge retention over time to improve learning outcomes.
The course is ideal for supervisors or workers responsible for creating, implementing, and/or overseeing traffic control in temporary work areas to develop an effective traffic control plan.

Following your course, you will be invited to participate in a short survey about your experience by our third-party research partner, Mission Research. Completing this survey is voluntary, however, learners who complete the survey will be eligible to be entered into a draw for a grand prize of $500 cash, or one of five runner-up prizes of $250 cash each, sent via Interac e-transfer. Learners will have the opportunity to opt out of the draw, should they wish. The odds of winning depend on the number of completed survey responses received.
