2008 PASER Training Sessions

The Michigan Local Technical Assistance Program will be offering PASER training sessions for people involved in the Michigan Transportation Asset Management Council’s (TAMC) annual road rating process.

Who Needs To Attend
PASER training is required for any person who plans to participate in the TAMC federal aid PASER data collection process and expects to be reimbursed for their time during the rating activity. People who did not actively rate during the 2007 data collection effort are required to attend BOTH the AM and PM sessions. People who attended the 2007 TAMC PASER training AND actively collected data in 2007 may attend the PM session only.

Registration
All participants MUST register in advance for the training as there are limits on space.
