DEI Transit Certificate Program

Transit is one of the most diverse industries in America. Both the employees and their customers are diverse and the role unconscious bias is playing in day-to-day encounters is a big concern. The ability to implement an effective DEI program in an agency can reduce turnover, increase productivity and morale, and lower costs associated.
