Easter Seals Project ACTION hosts training and other special events throughout the year. All are free of charge, but application is required because space is limited. Some travel expenses are supported.

Training opportunities include:

• Distance Learning opportunities, a series of remote conferences with guest speakers on current topics in accessible transportation. Participation in the audio conferences is as simple as registering online, emailing questions in advance and dialing in by phone. Recently added is a new Webinar format, which requires Internet access and a phone for listening to the audio portion.
  
• Online courses, multi-week courses of study for information and training offering the flexibility of  online functionality with the personal touch of an instructor and peers for interaction.
  
• Mobility Planning Services Institute (MPS), which convenes teams in communities across the U.S. to work together to develop action plans for improving the accessibility of transportation services in their community.
  
• Introduction to Travel Training Course, a three-day training initiative to increase the skills, knowledge and abilities of travel training professionals.

These and other upcoming events are announced on our calendar of events, our home page and in our quarterly and monthly newsletters.
