Road Trauma Awareness Seminar’s (RTAS) is delivered in collaboration with magistrates, prosecutors, and defence lawyers to include education as a component of sentencing for traffic offenders. RTAS has been growing for more than ten years and is delivered in 33 locations across Victoria each month.
We’ve changed the way we deliver our program to keep our participants, facilitators and volunteers safe. From 1 May 2020, we are offering the RTAS Program Online.
The current Calendar is below. Anyone can book into any program as they are all online, so it doesn’t matter, for example, if you live in Ballarat and book a Broadmeadows RTAS.
