The Institute of Highway Engineers (IHE) is launching new professional certificates in asset management and traffic sign design this autumn and has put out a call for candidates to undertake the first courses at a reduced cost.
The training courses, which are aligned with current codes of practice and guidance, represent a significant addition to the current suite of training available from the IHE and have been developed by the industry's leading professionals.

Chief executive Richard Hayes told Transport Network: ‘Asset management is one of the most fundamental elements of highway policy and maintenance and the course offers a comprehensive syllabus appropriate for service managers and practitioners.
‘The traffic sign design course includes the latest guidance and advice for the revisions of the traffic signs regulations.’
