Join APTA for Learning, Networking
Make plans now to participate in APTA’s upcoming conferences: the 2017 Bus & Paratransit Conference, May 7-10 in Reno, NV; the Rail Conference, June 11-14 in Baltimore; and the Annual Meeting & EXPO, Oct. 8-11 in Atlanta.
The Bus & Paratransit Conference will offer educational and networking opportunities as well as the APTA International Bus Roadeo, the Bus Display and the Products & Services Showcase. This year’s educational sessions will be organized into eight routes of study: technology and technical forums; operations and maintenance; accessibility and mobility management; safety, security and emergency preparedness; planning, sustainability and finance; capital programs; BRT (including the popular BRT Tuesday); and policy, management and workforce development.
The APTA Rail Conference will provide workshops and technical sessions covering issues of operations, technology, safety, security, planning, finance, capital projects and the technical aspects of providing all modes of rail service. The International Rail Rodeo and the Products & Services Showcase are also on the schedule.
For the Annual Meeting & EXPO, APTA has opened the call for presentations, inviting representatives of member organizations to submit ideas, case studies and best practices online by March 17. Authors will be notified of their selection by email beginning in late April.
