Bus Maintenance and Bus Testing Program Peer-to-Peer Exchange Summary Report
Significant shifts in the types of transit buses being procured (e.g., from traditional buses to alternative fuel/low- and no-emission buses) require new and different types of frontline worker training. Responding to requests from the public transit industry, the Federal Transit Administration (FTA) hosted a peer exchange to share knowledge about bus maintenance worker training and to discuss best practices for developing the next generation of highly-skilled bus technicians. This report presents a summary of the exchange and provides recommendations from industry representatives.
