CITE Training Committee Seeks New Members Are you interested in supporting professional development opportunities in Canada? Do you want a unique way to get involved with CITE at a national level? The CITE Training Committee’s goal is to increase the awareness and availability of training opportunities for Canadian transportation professionals by overseeing the development and delivery of training initiatives. The training committee is comprised of CITE members who are responsible for prioritizing, selecting, and organizing training opportunities for transportation professionals across Canada. Since the training committee is primarily a coordinating body tasked with providing opportunities for training to CITE members, it typically does not get involved with the development of specific training materials or delivery of the actual training sessions. Recent training courses we have offered across the country include a range of different topics such as Complete Streets, Traffic Calming, Bicycle Facilities Design, and the Canadian Capacity Guide. We anticipate a similar program in 2021 with the added challenge of adapting training opportunities for the COVID-19 pandemic and public health requirements, shifting Building Better Communities to virtual training offerings for 2021.
