Description:

A commitment to safety has long been a hallmark of community transportation programs. This commitment extends both to the riding public and to the women and men who work in the nation’s community transportation systems. To demonstrate this commitment to safety, CTAA developed the Certified Safety and Security Officer program. 

This certification program fully prepares community and public transportation professionals to review their operations for safety and security in the critical components and core elements of the Federal Transit Administration’s (FTA) Bus Safety and Security Program.

Workshop participants will learn how to conduct interviews and employ techniques useful in identifying and addressing all the benchmarks found in the FTA program’s nine critical areas. Participants will also review transit safety and security case studies.

This certification includes a CSSO participant handbook and a certification exam at the end of the course. The certification is valid for three years.
