We are planning webinars this spring on GTFS Builder and Mobility as a Service. They will be posted here when registration opens.
The three most recent webinars are listed below. All National RTAP Webinars are available in our YouTube Channel.
This webinar took a deep dive into three of our newest resources: the Directory of Grant Writers, Resources by Roles, and the John Martin Series - Harnessing the Power of Change. We also provided an introduction to some of our recently updated resources, including our Salary Ranges for Transit Jobs database, as well as our new Mobility Management Peer Forum, updated State RTAP Manager Status and Trends, and a sneak peak into Rural Transit Day 2025.
Michael Walk from the Texas Transportation Institute provided a brief training on the updated Cost Allocation Calculator. Jessie Schmitzer from the Ohio DOT discussed her experience encouraging and training subgrantees to use the tool.
National RTAP and CCAM-TAC held a Learn about TACL training. The session instructed on how to use TACL and included a Resource Feature by Joanne Waszczak, Special Assistant, FTA Office of Budget and Policy, and U.S. DOT Liaison to the United States Interagency Council on Homelessness (USICH), on TCRP's Homelessness: A Guide for Public Transportation, which she served on the review panel for.

" You go above and beyond and I wanted to let you know that I appreciate it so much and always enjoy my time with you. The presentations give me so much to bring back to my agency and my subrecipients. "
" I always used the CASE (Copy And Steal Everything) method to develop training materials until I discovered RTAP. They give it to you for free. Use it! "
" National RTAP provides an essential service to rural and small transit agencies. The products are provided at no cost and help agencies maximize their resources and ensure that their employees are trained in all aspects of passenger service. "
" We were able to deploy online trip planning for Glasgow Transit in less than
90 days using GTFS Builder. Trip planning information displays in a riders'
native language, which supports gencies in travel training and meeting Title VI
mandates. "
" Having a tool like GTFS Builder is really light years ahead of what it used to be at one time in terms of how fast you can put everything together. Our university students really can't imagine transit without it, so I think it's very important for us in terms of attracting that particular demographic. "
" In the past we used proprietary database software that was very challenging, very murky, and hard to update. GTFS Builder is a great opportunity to make this more user-friendly, more readily updatable and it
would enable us to show how to create a GTFS to more of the staff. "
" Collaboration is a buzz word these days in the industry. On behalf of our Tribal segment, I appreciate RTAP for making Tribes a partner in industry opportunities. The organization goes over and beyond reaching partners one would not expect in a busy industry such as public transportation. Thank you for your tireless efforts! "
"We are so very thankful for all your transportation training materials. Your resources are as valuable as gold!"
