The Transportation Workforce - Keeps America Moving
 
Welcome to Transportation Workforce Development

Safe and efficient transportation is critical to economic growth and the quality of life for all Americans. Yet 50 percent of the workforce responsible for planning, developing and managing the transportation system will be eligible to retire in the next five years. They will take with them years of experience, knowledge and skills that will be difficult to replace.

Pro-active efforts to develop a new workforce must begin in earnest. At stake is the viability of a transportation system that is already challenged to keep pace with the increasing demands of the industrial and service sectors and provide the American people with the commuter and recreation network they have come to expect and enjoy.

This website provides information for meeting the transportation workforce challenge now and for the future.
