PASS Two-Day Train-the-Trainer Certification Workshop

October 12, 2026 9:00 AM - October 13, 2026 2:00 PM (EDT)

Description

REGISTRATION OPEN CTAA’s Passenger Assistance Safety and Sensitivity (PASS) driver certification program ensures that community transportation drivers have current expertise in passenger assistance techniques and sensitivity skills appropriate for serving persons with disabilities. The PASS program is designed as a two-day Train-the-Trainer workshop to certify trainers who can then train drivers.

Some of the advantages of offering the PASS certification program is the ability to reduce organizational liability; comprehensive, up-to-date training on the assistance drivers should be providing to passengers with special needs; intensive emergency situation training; certification oversight provided by national leaders in the community transportation field; and updates for all participants on relevant regulatory changes. This class will be based on the updated PASS 8.0 standard with new sections on child car seats and human trafficking awareness, as well as comprehensive revisions to the prior content.

Note: This two-day workshop is intended to provide new (initial) certification to any transit staff in the trainer role.
