Transit Retreat hosted by the Northwest Pennsylvania Mobility Alliance, Inc
Myrtle Beach, SC
February 1 | February 3, 2023
The Transit Retreat will be focused on Transit leaders, Mobility Managers and Advocates from across the nation. Whether you are new to Transit and Mobility or a seasoned professional, this event is for you. Keeping this Retreat aimed at the Rural, Small Urban and Demand Response providers will maximize the attendance and allow for targeted information sharing. To ensure we remain true to a “Retreat” concept, we will limit attendance. This isn’t your typical transit event. Expect more targeted opportunities to engage your peers, national partners and vendors in a relaxed, scenic setting.
The future of networking and information sharing with Transit peers and Vendor interaction is not to walk through a loud, crowded Expo Hall with 5-10 minutes of face time. Transit leaders want the ability to have real conversations in a relaxed setting where time and attention can be provided. The Retreat will capitalize on this concept and integrate dedicated time for Transit Leaders, National partners and Vendors to interact in a retreat setting along with low-stress networking opportunities.

TWC Webinar: Fundamentals of Mentoring
Online
Event Start Time: 3:00 pm ET
Event End Time: 4:15 pm ET
June 22, 2022
: Fundamentals of Mentoring
Description:
Mentor programs provide a powerful and effective tool for workforce development and retention. For maintenance occupations, mentors deliver hands-on training support, putting skills in diverse workplace contexts beyond the classroom. For bus operators, mentors provide guidance that addresses real world situations, building and expanding on basic training and creating ongoing support for each new operator. In every transit agency across all occupations, seasoned employees have stores of knowledge waiting to be shared. Without mentorship, this knowledge can be lost when workers retire or move on.
A well-structured mentorship program, designed in partnership with the workers, ensure this expertise is passed on. Strong mentorship programs also provide mentors with leadership opportunities and mentees with the skills and confidence they need to succeed, increasing expertise and morale throughout the organization. In this webinar, attendees will:
- Develop an understanding of the key elements of a successful mentorship program
- Hear from labor and management leaders at established transit mentor programs about the impact of mentorship programs in their agencies
- Learn about the skills used by effective mentors
- Listen to the experiences of current mentors and mentees.
This is the third in the Transit Workforce Center’s webinar series on strategic workforce development planning in transit.

Michael Hursh, General Manager, AC Transit
Stuart Bass, Principal, Progress Worx
Jamaine Gibson, Director of Apprenticeships and Workforce Development, Amalgamated Transit Union International

This is the second in the Transit Workforce Center’s webinar series on strategic workforce development planning in transit. The TWC’s first webinar examined workforce development for the incumbent workforce. This webinar focuses on how transit agencies and partner organizations are working to meet the significant recruitment challenges across the country and how to best turn these challenges into opportunities to reach, attract, and retain a diverse workforce. Two transit agencies and their labor partners will discuss their innovative outreach and recruitment programs–including mentoring, pre-apprenticeships, and community college partnerships–followed by a presentation from a national organization leader who has coordinated cross-sectoral recruitment initiatives with agencies across the U.S.
The TWC will introduce this session with leadership from the Federal Transit Administration as they review workforce recruitment challenges nationally. The session will close with a first-look look at the initial phase of the TWC’s National Transit Frontline Worker Campaign and elements of the campaign’s toolkit. Significant time will be left at the end of the session for Q&A among presenters and webinar attendees.

The Transit Retreat will be focused on Transit leaders, Mobility Managers and Advocates from across the nation. Whether you are new to Transit and Mobility or a seasoned professional, this event is for you. Keeping this Retreat aimed at the Rural, Small Urban and Demand Response providers will maximize the attendance and allow for targeted information sharing. To ensure we remain true to a “Retreat” concept, we will limit attendance. This isn’t your typical transit event. Expect more targeted opportunities to engage your peers, national partners and vendors in a relaxed, scenic setting.
The future of networking and information sharing with Transit peers and Vendor interaction is not to walk through a loud, crowded Expo Hall with 5-10 minutes of face time. Transit leaders want the ability to have real conversations in a relaxed setting where time and attention can be provided. The Retreat will capitalize on this concept and integrate dedicated time for Transit Leaders, National partners and Vendors to interact in a retreat setting along with low-stress networking opportunities.

Join JFF’s Center for Apprenticeship and Work-Based Learning and the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) to learn about how Registered Apprenticeship (RA) can be an effective strategy for building a diverse and highly skilled workforce. We will explore apprenticeship in the context of helping you achieve the goals of upcoming federal infrastructure investments and navigating emerging federal priorities. You will also hear directly from current DOT grantees about how they are using Registered Apprenticeship to build an equitable workforce.
This webinar is intended for transit agencies and operators. Other local and state Departments of Transportation, employers, community partners, and apprenticeship sponsors are welcome to attend if space permits.
