Roadway Safety Teaching Topic Packages for Instructors

These Roadway Safety Teaching Topic Packages will assist instructors in teaching critical roadway safety and traffic incident management to responders from all agencies. All content follows recommended policies and practices and is consistent with the National TIM Training from the Federal Highway Administration and the training available on the Responder Safety Learning Network.

Instructors are free to teach these lessons in whatever way they see fit: as self-contained units, integrated into operations, as full classes or as refresher or as quick reminders during roll call. All content is customizable to your department, agency, or class.

Each Package includes:

• a lesson plan with a pre-class assignment, materials, learning objectives, teaching content, practical and tabletop exercises, resources, and case studies
• a "TIM in a Minute" video summarizing major concepts in the lesson
• a PowerPoint presentation for teaching key content from the lesson
• model SOPs appropriate to the lesson plan
