Flagger Novice

Class Details

The National Safety Council's Flagger Training Course is a comprehensive skill-building session that meets federal industry guidelines: the Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) guidelines. The Office of Highway Safety, the Federal Highway Administration, and several state Departments of Transportation have reviewed this program.

This course is a must for novice construction work zone flaggers in both one- and two-person flagging operations. Experienced flaggers can attend this course as a refresher. All attendees receive a certificate of course completion.

The primary objectives of the program are to train flaggers to provide safe passage of traffic through and around work areas and to minimize confusion by bringing standard flagging procedures to our nation's highways.

What you'll learn:

  • Thorough understanding of flagging procedures and proper use of required equipment.
  • Improved flagging skills from hands-on training, classroom activities and a flagging skills test.
  • Increased ability to coordinate traffic movement through the work zone.
