The Transportation Training and Education Center (TTEC) is a progressive partnering effort between the public and private sectors of the transportation industry. TTEC’s strategy is to assist and enable workforce development using principles of Strategic Human Capital Improvement. The goals of this strategy are to create and provide sound training; transition current classes/training into the distance learning environment where appropriate; and incorporate instructional design concepts, utilizing the talents of formally trained designers to update and modernize courses.
TTEC is dedicated to the delivery of transportation training, professional development opportunities, continuing education, and technology transfer to engineers, technicians, and other professionals from Louisiana’s public and private sectors. Through this new facility, LTRC is expanding the scope and availability of training, thereby serving a larger population.
TTEC specializes in adult learning. Content-rich training is delivered through a variety of mediums: on-site instruction, videoconferences, webinars, and web-based content.
When you attend a training event at TTEC, you can focus on learning. TTEC provides the latest in distance learning technology along with the support staff to manage it. We offer a variety of learning configurations—from small, hands-on classes to large group meetings.
Participating in training events at TTEC is an effective way to consolidate the amount of off-site training you need. TTEC’s location on LSU’s campus is easily accessible for students throughout the region.
TTEC’s state-of-the-art transportation research library offers access to worldwide information sources such as the LSU Library database and Transportation Libraries Catalog, and a full-time librarian is on site to assist with any research needs. Be sure to visit the link to the library’s homepage on the LTRC Web site (www.ltrc.lsu.edu/library.html).
