FHWA Reserved Seats
Please note that 3 seats in all NHI sessions are held for FHWA employees. FHWA employees will enroll in the NHI session via the Department of Transportation electronic learning management system. If the 3 seats have not been filled within 3 weeks prior to the start of the session, the hosting agency can release those seats to other participants. To learn whether the 3 FHWA seats are being used for your session, contact your local FHWA Training Coordinator. His or her e-mail and telephone number are listed on the NHI Web site posting for your session.

FHWA Training Coordinator Orientation
At the request of session hosts/local coordinators and FHWA training coordinators, NHI prepared a 20 minute orientation for FHWA Training Coordinators regarding NHI training. FHWA Training Coordinators in the Divisions and Headquarters have contributed to the development of this overview and best practice suggestions!

Cancellation Policy

Hosts
The host of an NHI course must contact the NHI Training Manager at (703) 235-0520 for approval to cancel a course for any reason. Cancellation is requested no later than 10 working days prior to the course start date to avoid incurring any fees. If the course materials have been sent, the host must return the materials to the FHWA Report Center. In the event of cancellation for any reason, it is the host's responsibility to contact all participants via e-mail and telephone. There must be validation that registrants received cancellation notice. Notice to out-of-State/traveling participants is especially important to avoid charges for travel. If notification of cancellation occurs less than 10 days prior to the start date of the course, travel costs for the participants may be the responsibility of the host. The host should contact an FHWA Training Coordinator or the NHI Scheduler to obtain the list of FHWA enrollees and their contact information for notification of the cancellation.

Participants
If you need to cancel your enrollment in a session, you must contact nhitraining@dot.gov and the host of your session no later than 7 days prior to the course start date to avoid incurring any fees.
