Road works training — for the whole crew
We train road and civil engineering contractors in Trafikverkets competence requirements. Here you can see which level each person needs, from the general 1.1 that applies to everyone to the responsible roles in steps 2 and 3. If you need help choosing, get in touch.
See the coursesThree levels, three different people
- 1.1
- Everyone on site, including whoever is only there for an hour
- 1.4
- Whoever directs traffic by hand. A requirement on top of 1.1
- 2.2
- Signing supervisor. Finished only once the exam at Trafikverket is passed
What do you need to train?
The whole ladder
All eight levels in order, with what they contain and who needs them. Start here if you are unsure.
Traffic marshals and pilots
Level 1.4, for you who are to stand as a marshal, drive a pilot vehicle or direct traffic by hand. Required on top of the general 1.1.
Signing supervisor
Level 2.2, for you who are to be responsible for road signs and traffic devices. Also requires a passed exam at Trafikverket.
TMA drivers
Level 2.1, for you who drive a road maintenance vehicle with an energy-absorbing attenuator on mobile operations.
Dangerous goods by road
For everyone involved when you transport dangerous goods — classifying, packing, labelling, loading, unloading or driving.
Excavation safety
For you who plan, direct or carry out excavation work. Collapse risk, slope angles, support structures and safe access.
We train road and civil engineering contractors in Trafikverkets competence requirements. What makes the requirements awkward is not the substance but the way they are written: the levels are named almost the same, two of them differ by one decimal, and four of them take an exam at Trafikverket on top of the course. We have sorted that out on this site, so you can see who in the crew needs what and book the right course straight away.
Have the records together before the client asks
The client asks for the competence records when the job starts, and increasingly every time you arrive at a new site. Whoever keeps a current summary of who holds which level, with a date on every row, hands it over the same day. Whoever does not discovers at the same moment that two people have expired and that a signing supervisor never got an exam booked.
Common questions
- We only work on municipal streets. Do Trafikverkets levels still apply?
- Municipalities and other road authorities largely refer to the same levels, because it is the description the trade has. Which level is required of you is stated in the agreement with the road authority, and that document decides — not who owns the road.
- Is an online course enough for the responsible roles?
- Not on its own. Levels 2.1, 2.2, 2.3 and 3.0 require a passed certification exam at Trafikverket before the requirement is met. The course prepares you for that exam and covers what you need to know; the exam is taken and booked at Trafikverket.
- We do not know which level our contract requires.
- Read the level stated for each role in the documents and compare it with what those people actually do on site. Where the two disagree, the task governs. If it is still unclear, get in touch with the wording from the contract.
- Can one person hold several levels?
- Yes, and most do. The levels do not replace each other, they stack: whoever is to stand as a marshal needs the general level as well, and a signing supervisor who works on the road personally needs the level for that work.
Train the crew before they stand on the road
The online courses are done at the office, at home or in the cab — any time before the first working day. Then the certificates already exist the day the client asks to see them.
