Have you ever wondered how people get training on running a public transit agency? Public transit is a very complex business/service to run, so how do you learn everything you need to know?

The answer is the National Transit Institute at Rutgers, the State University of New Jersey. Paul talks with Executive Director Billy Terry about NTI and everything it does.

Like having to switch from 98% in-person classes taught around the U.S. to 100% virtual classes taught remotely.

We also hear from Elea Carey on how to get your message out quickly and Mike Bismeyer on conferences as essential parts of staying current in your field.

We wrap this episode with Tris, Paul, and Randi talking about the upcoming Executive Summit at ThinkTransit this March 20-23.
