Cat A Assessment (for a refresher STMS)

Because the STMS is an existing STMS, they do not need to complete verified worksites. They can proceed directly to the assessment which is observed by the assessor.

The TTM Assessor will observe a live lane worksite with alternating flow control.

We do recommend working with a TTM Mentor to go over the assessment tasks to ensure the STMS understands the requirements of each component.
