Every year, the Finnish Road Safety Council (Liikenneturva) offers teachers further education in traffic safety, in which teachers review the basics of traffic safety education and can try out different action models. Teachers are also offered an opportunity to network with other teachers and share good practice. The Finnish Road Safety Council also publishes an electronic newsletter for teachers four times a year, which highlights current issues and introduces materials and action models for traffic safety education.

According to a teacher survey, the support of the school’s head teacher is a significant factor for teachers to actually teach traffic safety.
