摘要: |
Successful deployment, operation, and management of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) requires a new breed of transportation professionals, according to research, extensive outreach, and information gathered to date. The U.S. DOT has responded by developing ITS training courses and establishing the Professional Capacity Building (PCB) Program in 1996 to help prepare transportation professionals for the new millennium. Over 100 course offerings have been presented to over 3000 professionals as of December 31, 1997. This three-part report documents the PCB needs of current transportation professionals in the context of ITS Metropolitan Infrastructure deployment. It is based on (1) a synthesis of thirteen prior ITS education and training needs assessments; (2) supplemental field interviews with ITS practitioners; and (3) a summary assessment of PCB needs. |
