Staying Safe While Responding to Emergencies

10/9/2018

The Responder Training Program (RTP) was developed by responders for responders to promote consistent training. The training focuses on the three objectives of the Traffic Incident Management (TIM) National Unified Goal: responder safety; safe, quick clearance; and prompt, reliable, and interoperable communications.

Students will learn more about the dangers encountered by emergency responders working in or near traffic, safe vehicle positioning, traffic management, towing and recovery communications and more. 

All TIM disciplines are welcome to attend the course, including: communications, emergency management, emergency medical services (EMS), fire/rescue, law enforcement, towing and recovery and transportation/public works. Registration for the course is on site.
