What We're Offering! 

The Winter Workshop
The Winter Workshop is a NYAPT tradition, bringing key school transportation information and knowledge to supervisors and managers of school bus operations. This mid-year program is a great educational and networking opportunity!  It serves as a refresher for managers on important transportation program elements and it's highly instructive for all levels of administrative/supervisory staff in your department.

The Workshop includes timely and new information on topics such as driver licensing, special education transportation and management development.  All workshops are held in General Session and our partners from our vendor community will be on hand exhibiting and participating throughout the event.
