As part of your membership benefits, NEPTA provides its members high quality trainings. Watch the recording of our guest speaker Kevin Bunce as he focuses on the critical importance of prioritizing and documenting maintenance department operations.

This webinar, provided in two parts, explored how clear, structured documentation not only supports internal maintenance efficiency but also provides upper-level decision-makers and financial managers with a transparent, monetary view of the fleet maintenance department’s role and value. We also covered how this documentation aligns with and supports compliance with the FTA’s Transit Asset Management (TAM) Program requirements. Whether you're seeking better communication across departments or looking to strengthen your TAM reporting, these two one-hour webinars provided practical insights and actionable strategies.

(no fooling) 

Human Trafficking is a crime against adults and children of any gender or gender identity, race, or nationality. It is a crime involving the exploitation of someone for the purposes of compelled labor or a commercial sex act through the use of force, fraud, or coercion. Where a person younger than 18 is induced to perform a commercial sex act, it is a crime regardless of whether there is any force, fraud, or coercion. Human trafficking is a modern form of slavery, with nearly 25 million victims worldwide, including in the United States. Traffickers use all modes of transportation to conduct their activities and often use public transit because it is low cost, offers greater anonymity in buying fare cards, and provides less direct interaction with government officials. Public transportation workers and riders are presented with the best opportunities to identify and report potential incidents of sex and labor trafficking. The challenge is letting them know what it is and how to report.
