Certified Traffic Control / Flagger Specialist (CTFS)

About This Course

Controlling traffic through work areas is one of the most important—and dangerous—operations in construction maintenance. The IASHEP Flagger Training Course is a comprehensive skill-building session that meets federal industry guidelines, including the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) and the ANSI standard ISEA-107-1999. The Office of Highway Safety, the Federal Highway Administration, and several state Departments of Transportation have reviewed this program.

The primary objectives of the program are to train flaggers to provide safe passage of traffic through and around work areas and to minimize confusion by bringing standard flagging procedures to our nation’s highways. Get your crew members trained and certified in safe flagging techniques in just four hours.
