MEET THE 2021 SPEAKERS
"The Transit Academy was my first opportunity to look at transportation through the eyes of all of the stakeholders. In fact, while I was vaguely aware of most stake holders, the experience at the Transit Academy brought them all into focus as well as the essential 'give and take' that is necessary for transit systems to meet community needs. Given the amount of information available through the Academy and on line, I might just sign up for the virtual experience so that I can pick up thoughts I may have missed the first time through."

"The Transit Academy was a great experience! Many of the speakers opened my eyes to previously unknown issues. The speakers were high quality and interesting."

"I’ve participated in the Transit Academy twice, and each time I leave knowing more than I did before and feeling invigorated for transit advocacy. The sessions are comprehensive, interactive, and curated to truly relevant topics. On top of all that you learn, the Transit Academy provides the opportunity for connecting with other transit advocates from all over the community. It’s an incredible opportunity to prioritize conversations about mobility needs and access. This experience has been invaluable to me both personally and now professionally as I recently transitioned into working within the transit industry myself. Participating will not only equip you with the tools to effectively discuss transit issues, but also inspire you to intentionally advocate for the support transit needs."
