For Local Agencies and Tribal Communities
Your success starts here!
The Road to Success
Starts Here!
The Federal Highway Administration’s Center for Local Aid Support is sponsoring online
training courses for the local agencies and tribal communities. This is your guide to
anytime, anywhere access to hundreds of training topics designed to meet your
individual needs. With dozens of hours of content currently available and continual
updates to the course curriculum, participants can continue their education in
transportation topics from beginner to advanced.
If you have not tried one of these self-paced courses yet, now is the time to
experience enhanced learning available to you through FHWA. All you will need to
get started is internet connection.
A big thank you to our partners AASHTO, National Highway Institute and the Institute
for Transportation Engineers. Making the online training available is important to
ensuring continuity in the delivery of safe and efficient transportation assets to local
and tribal communities. 24/7 training that is self-paced eliminates the challenges
many agencies face with budget constraints; workforce shortages; and changing
transportation needs.
But, on-demand does not have to mean that you are on your own! The Local
Technical Assistance Centers in each state and Puerto Rico continue to provide
technical assistance and live training in addition to what is already available to you
online.
We hope you find this guide useful and essential to keeping you knowledgeable and
innovative in your solutions to improving transportation for your communities. Be sure
to pay attention to required passcodes and use your government email for
registration. If you do not have a government email, please contact CLA[email protected]
for further assistance.

LTAP
Local Technical Assistance
Program
The Local Technical Assistance Program is one of the agency’s largest
transportation technology transfer activities and serves as a vehicle for
FHWA to impact transportation systems by forwarding products,
knowledge and resources applicable to local roadways directly to the
front-line agencies that need them.
The small program has a large footprint across local system. Key to the
delivery of the national program is the use of 51 local Centers one in
each state and Puerto Rico. The local centers are tasked under the
program to provide training, technical assistance and technology
transfer services related to highways to the local public agencies in their
state or territory.
LTAP Centers across the nation provide face to face training and
technical assistance in support of local transportation. We hope local
agencies and tribes continue to expand their transportation knowledge
with the help of LTAP centers' resources.
Be sure to check with your state LTAP for information on available online
training. For more information on LTAPs, visit our webpage:
https://www.fhwa.dot.gov/clas/ltap/.
CLAS
Center for Local Aid Support
The FHWA’s Center for Local Aid Support has developed a series of self-
paced online training courses for local agencies and tribal communities.
