The concept of a training and technical information clearinghouse came into existence. The concept is being implemented through an RTAP-funded contract between FHWA and the American Public Works Association. This clearinghouse directory gives specific information on available training resources for each of the following subjects: bridges; drainage; engineering; equipment; management; other resources; road surface; roadside; safety; subgrade; traffic control; and winter. Each resource in the directory is composed of the following: title; permanent identification number; date of entry of the item into the data bank; classification of the type of product (such as course, lecture, or videocassette); contact who can give further information; short description of the product; targeted audience; and keywords line. The directory will be updated at 6-month intervals.
