The course details are as follows:
This training is being put on due to police/councils withdrawing their support from local road races, resulting in race organisers having to hire in traffic management companies. This course gives them the option of managing the traffic themselves by training attendees as Traffic Management Operatives. This course is useful for anyone involved in putting on a road or cross-country race where areas of road may need to be closed and/or traffic diverted.
Cost: Reduced to £20 (usual price £100 subsidised by England Athletics)
Qualification Gained: Each delegate is certificated as this is a national award through the NCFE. www.ncfe.org.uk . Plus UKA insurers Aviva have underwritten the training. All attendees get a certificate and a card to prove their attendance at the course.
