The IRF’s latest calendar of events reaffirms its global reach

"As a strong believer in continuing education, the 3918 IRF Washington will continue its initiative to provide world-class training content through regional congresses, certified courses and web based media” declared C Patrick Sankey, IRF president and CEO, as he presented IRF’s updated calendar of events.

The IRF has long provided its members as well as other road professionals worldwide with educational and professional development opportunities and resources. IRF’s global training curriculum provides technical expertise in classroom and practical settings where attendees can learn from and have direct access to seasoned professionals.

Each course not only provides the most relevant, up-to-date information and best practices and solutions, but is also designed to assist attendees in learning to correctly apply the knowledge gained. At the conclusion of each course, students are tested to ensure they have absorbed the course material.

“With 37 events in 10 countries scheduled in 2015 alone, we have taken our drive to become the leading provider of applied knowledge in surface transportation to the next level,” Sankey noted. “Both the scope of our training and the number of countries it is being delivered in mean there is a learning opportunity for everyone in our industry.”
