Join us for the Making Connections 2022 National Conference in Washington, D.C. December 13-14. This conference brings together participants from urban, suburban, rural, and tribal public transportation and industry stakeholders in plenaries, workshops, networking, and ongoing dialogue. Discussions and sessions at this year’s conference will include recruitment and retention, training, mentoring and apprenticeships, new technologies, preparing today’s and tomorrow's workforce, and advancing diversity, equity, inclusion, and access. The conference is open to anyone committed to moving transportation workforce development forward, including labor and management representatives, frontline workers, trainers and mentors, community leaders, educators, non-profits, advocacy groups, and government representatives. Registration and hotel information coming in early September.

 

The Transit Workforce Center —operated by the International Transportation Learning Center— is the Federal Transit Administration’s first ever technical assistance center. Making Connections 2022 is co-sponsored by the National Transit Institute.
