Why an international training ?

The EC issued the Communication COM (2010) 389 final “Towards a European road Safety area: policy orientation on road safety 2011-2020”, where it is clearly stated in the Objective n°3 that “The Commission will promote the application of the relevant principles on infrastructure safety management to secondary roads of Member States, in particular through the exchange of best practices”.

A certified International training will comply with the above-mentioned objective by:

A common International training will be the first step to getting a common high level of road safety on all roads across the EU member states. By having safety personnel with a harmonized technical background, similar road safety solutions will be adopted for similar road safety problems.
