Toll Collectors

Education and Training Requirements

High School

A high school diploma is required to work as a toll collector. Recommended high school courses include mathematics, speech, and English classes. These will help develop the communication skills—listening as well as speaking—that are important in the job of toll collecting.

Postsecondary Training

Toll collectors may have to pass a civil service exam to test their skills and aptitude for the job. When hired, they receive on-the-job training; no formal postsecondary education is required.
