Board Support Subcommittee

Created in 1994, the Board Support Subcommittee establishes a communication network for board support staff, provides a forum to exchange ideas, and enhances members’ skills in assisting transit policy makers.

The subcommittee develops the annual Board Support Employee Development Workshop, a 2½ day educational experience that includes study topics such as minute-taking skills, effective communication, making presentations, board packet assembly, business writing, creating and managing the board’s web pages, and organizational skills. The subcommittee meets during the Board Support Employee Development Workshop and at the APTA Annual Meeting.
