Steps
Open MassDOT's 'Approved flagger certification programs' page (mass.gov/info-details/approved-flagger-certification-programs)
Confirm the list's stated last-updated date (reported as November 14, 2025 as of this check) to ensure it's still current
Verify the specific training provider/program name against the approved list
Confirm the flagger holds a valid Certification Card at all times per 700 CMR 6.00, and that a current First Aid certification was obtained at initial certification
Check the certification's 2-year validity window and whether a refresher course was completed within one month prior to expiration for recertification
Known gotchas
MassDOT approval of a program is Commonwealth-specific — a card approved elsewhere (e.g., a generic ATSSA card from another state) is not automatically valid on MassDOT-jurisdiction roadways
The refresher course has a narrow eligibility window (within one month prior to expiration); missing it can require full recertification rather than a simple refresher
The approved-programs list is a live page that changes as MassDOT adds or removes providers — re-check it per project rather than relying on a cached copy
