ITRE is skilled at tailoring courses and developing content to meet a variety of instructional needs for practitioners and public audiences ranging from children through adults. Our strengths include professional development courses such as pedestrian planning and design, bicycle planning and design, and designing for pedestrian accessibility that are periodically offered through ITRE. We have developed and offered specialty courses, webinars, curriculum and videos geared toward law enforcement professionals, instructors who work with elementary aged children, and agencies interested in non-motorized data monitoring.
