  Training Opportunities

One of the most important elements of your company’s CTR program is the person selected to perform the role of Employee Transportation Coordinator (ETC)—you! As an ETC, you will serve as the point of contact between:

  • Your company’s management and employees to implement, promote and administer your organization’s CTR program; and
  • Your employer and local jurisdiction to track your employer’s progress in meeting CTR requirements.

Here are some examples of specific tasks an ETC may perform:

  • Meet with management to determine program elements;
  • Work with local transportation agencies regarding transportation services and products
  • Complete the Employer Annual Report & Program Description;
  • Coordinate the distribution and collection of biennial CTR surveys to all affected employees (or perform equal data measurement);
  • Evaluate CTR program and survey data and enhance Program as necessary to improve results;
  • Assist employees with ridematching to form carpools or vanpools;
  • Meet with employees to talk about the benefits of carpooling, bicycling or riding the bus;
  • Promote the worksite CTR program to employees by producing and distributing information pieces;
  • Track employees’ participation in specific program elements;
  • Help monitor employee parking in designated HOV parking spaces;
  • Distribute bus passes and vanpool or carpool incentives to employees;
  • Brief management on the CTR program’s progress.
