RSSConfirming its role as the industry’s most trusted brand in continuing education, 3918 IRF Washington has unveiled 14 new courses for mid- to senior-level to road managers.

IRF's 2016 Training Catalogue significantly expands the offering of executive courses to include emerging topics such as network safety diagnosis, climate-resilient road infrastructure, electronic toll collection and smart city mobility applications.

Many of these are already planned for delivery in 2016.
