This Spring, APTA launched the Transit Workforce Readiness Guide, a highly interactive online resource for executives and their staff to help organizations build a more diverse talent pipeline by attracting high school students, especially those from underserved communities, to entry-level transit positions. In this session, we will feature three organizations highlighted in the Guide. These speakers will share their stories and discuss the programs they have created to target high school students to raise industry awareness and create opportunities within their communities.
