摘要: The I-95 Corridor Coalition has been involved in the planning and the implementation of a wide variety of ITS technologies and applications. An integral component of any of its ITS projects is the training of individuals in the various functional areas of implementation and deployment. There are a large number of agencies and organizations comprising the Coalition. Therefore, development of a comprehensive Corridor-level, rather than agency-level, training program is essential to increase the level of ITS expertise and to prepare agencies for the experience of the ITS deployment. This paper acts as the first stage of the development, management, and deliverance of a training and technology exchange program for the I-95 Corridor Coalition agencies that employ consultant, academic, and seconded agency staff. The intended training program would cover all personnel levels from technicians to operational managers based on the identified agency training needs related to Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) technologies and project areas. The program would utilize currently developed course materials from government, academic, and private sources as well as from technical associations. Through a survey of Coalition member agencies on their ITS training needs and identification of current training sources, it is determined that there is a significant need for ITS training in the I-95 Northeast Corridor. There are a number of technology areas identified in the Coalition member agency surveys that warrant significant attention in the development of a training and technology exchange program. Therefore, based on the agencies' input, the following technology areas should be treated as priority areas in the fostering of ITS training: Computer systems, Communications Systems, Incident Management, Variable Message Signs, and Closed Circuit Television. There are existing training curricula and technology exchange programs available to meet some of the Coalition's training needs, although for many ITS technologies, there are no identifiable sources of training. These areas will need to be explored as the training program for the Coalition is developed.
