Announcements
Our 2024-2025 training schedule will be announced and classes available for registration in early September. If you need to renew your certification, you may challenge an exam by enrolling here. The digital ADA Curb Ramp Inspector/Contractor and Traffic Signal Inspector Courses and Exams are available online through Workday Learning.
This Just in!
There are only a few more ADA Curb Ramp Inspector and Contractor Field Exams remaining this season on 9/18, 10/16 & 11/6. Be sure to get your Training and Online Exam completed so you may enroll yourself in the Field Exam to complete your certification. The 2024 ADA Curb Ramp Curriculum and Exam will be taken down in November-December, so we may update the 2025 course materials.
As of July, 2024, we’ve activated implementation of AASHTOWare Project (AWP) for Construction & Materials and Civil Rights & Labor. In order to manage the program, we have opted for a gradual start-up. We will add new projects as they become available and meet our criteria. Our first contract and training was last month with the RE Bend Office and prime contractor Marcum & Sons. The next training in August is for two contracts at the RE Portland Office for Crew 1823 and Consor Engineering. Both contracts in August have the prime contractor Brown Constructing.
Your office could be using AWP soon! We want you to know what's coming up in AWP. If you'd like to receive our newsletter, contact us at: ODOTeconstruction@odot.oregon.gov.
