Training Committee
The ITE Canada Training Committee’s goal is to increase the availability of high-quality training opportunities for Canadian transportation professionals by overseeing the development and delivery of training initiatives. Some recent training sessions coordinated by the Training Committee include sessions on Protected Intersection Design, Accessibility in Transportation Systems, Big Data and Emerging Traffic Technologies, Multimodal Traffic Signal Operations, and Bicycle Facilities Design.
The Training Committee is composed of ITE Canada 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 ITE Canada members, it typically does not get involved with the development of specific training materials or delivery of the actual training sessions.
We are seeking one new member to join the ITE Canada Training Committee beginning January 1, 2025. The term for the committee members is a maximum of four years. If you are interested in joining our committee, please complete the ITE Canada Volunteer Form at itecanada.org/volunteer by November 27, 2024 and check off ITE Canada – Training Committee and any other opportunities you may be interested in.
More information, including the Committee’s Terms of Reference, is available here.
Technical Liaison Committee (TLC)
The ITE Canada Technical Liaison Committee (TLC) is looking for a new committee member beginning January 1, 2025. A minimum of four members will comprise the core of the TLC with an appointed member from the ITE Canada Executive Committee as liaison.
TLC members are appointed for two-year terms, renewable up to a maximum of six years. They are expected to attend at least one face-to-face meeting per year (under normal conditions), attend a monthly conference call, and assist in the ongoing coordination of ITE and TAC appointees as well as technical projects that ITE Canada is involved in. Furthermore, the TLC members also support ongoing partnership development and relationship building with other transportation organizations such as CARSP and CUTA.
An indication of support from your employer is required. Expenses are expected to be covered by the employer but may be partially subsidized by ITE Canada depending on budget availability and priorities.
Preference in choosing TLC members will be given to current ITE Canada Appointees and ITE members illustrating knowledge and involvement with ITE. Other interested ITE members are also encouraged to apply.
