TfL Star Competence Framework

The development of this website has been co-financed by Transport for London’s Project STAR which aims to provide a more coordinated approach to the development of staff in Streets and in the London Boroughs. The listing of all the training activities on offer from UK training providers as a one stop information source is one part of this project.

As far as possible each training event has been cross-referenced to one of the eleven domain areas in the Transport for London Competence Framework for Streets developed by Project STAR. The full list of Competences is displayed below.

In the next phase of development of this site the training courses will also be cross- referenced against the National Transport Qualifications developed by TVG and the TPS/Go-Skills National Occupational Standards.
