About Us

The American Public Safety Association (APSA) is a professional organization committed to setting the standard in flagger training, certification, and workforce development. We serve as a unifying body for traffic control professionals who are passionate about safety, structure, and service on America's roadways.

Our mission is to empower and equip flaggers with the skills, credentials, and support needed to succeed in the field of traffic management. Whether you're just starting out or advancing your career, APSA provides a trusted network of education, opportunity, and advocacy.

We are more than an association—we are a movement. APSA champions second chances by welcoming individuals from all walks of life, including veterans and returning citizens, and connecting them to meaningful work that makes a difference. Through ongoing training, exclusive member benefits, vendor partnerships, and industry visibility, our members become part of something bigger: a national force for public safety.

At APSA, we believe in professionalism, purpose, and people. Together, we stand on the front lines of safety, protecting lives one flagger at a time.
