MO-LTAP Scholars Program

The primary purpose of the MO-LTAP Scholars Program is to train skilled personnel within Missouri local transportation and public works agencies.  The program provides training to increase knowledge of local public works and road systems and improve administrative, supervisory, technical, and worker skills.

Training is provided by professional instructors.  Classes are offered at multiple locations across Missouri at least once every two years.  Attendance is tracked and certificates are awarded for completion of each class.  MO-LTAP Scholars Program Certificates are awarded at various statewide conferences and meetings such as Missouri Association of County Transportation Officials (MACTO) or Missouri Chapter APWA.  In addition, an awards ceremony can be scheduled at the graduate’s place of employment.

The program allows participants to attain two levels of achievement:  MO-LTAP Scholars I and MO-LTAP Scholars II.  Participants are required to meet the requirements for level I before completing level II.  MO-LTAP Scholars II is intended to train personnel for supervisory and administrative positions.  Employees of all Missouri public entities are invited to participate in any section of the Missouri LTAP, “Show – Me” Scholars Program.
