APAWV Offers 2026 Asphalt Mix Design Courses

The Asphalt Pavement Association of West Virginia is offering an asphalt mix design course which will cover both Marshall and Superpave Mix Design methods. These courses are centered around the WVDOH specifications and materials procedures and AASHTO/ASTM methods. Students will gain a working knowledge of the principles associated with asphalt concrete volumetric mix design for each design method and will be prepared to sit for their WVDOH Asphalt Mix Design Certification examination.
Courses have been scheduled for February 2-6, 2026, and March 16-20, 2026. Each class will begin on the respective Monday at 8:00 A.M. and run through Friday at 10:30 A.M. Following the final Friday sessions, students will take their certification examination (10:30 A.M. – Noon).
Both courses will be held at the WVDOH Materials Control, Soils, and Testing Division office (190 Dry Branch Drive. Charleston, WV).
Course fees for an APAWV member, governmental employees and students are $700 per person. Course fees for a non-APAWV member are $1,000. For more information or to register for the courses please visit the corresponding registration pages below.
