Pursuing Excellence in Knowledge Transfer

TTEC Strategy

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 At a Glance

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.
