Thank You FAPT & SESPTC Members

Thank you all for visiting our booth at the 2014 FAPT & SESPTC Trade Show in Daytona Beach, FL. I enjoyed seeing everyone again this year. I noticed a lot of training trends, but the four most popular topics I discussed with booth visitors were:

 

1. Florida School Bus Driver Classroom Training – Online – Our online Florida School Bus Driver course is recognized by Florida Department of Education (DOE) as meeting the requirements for the twenty hours of classroom instruction. This is an affordable, convenient, web-based option for training. STS online training is currently be used in Walton, Holmes, Wakulla, Clay, Marion, Volusia, Manatee, Hendry, Monroe, Okeechobee, Charlotte, Pinellas, Hamilton, and DeSoto counties.

 

2. School Bus Driver: Preparation and Refresher – Online – This school bus driver preparation and refresher training curriculum covers common classroom content necessary for school bus drivers to successfully pass a Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) written test. This curriculum is commonly used by districts, schools, and/or organizations to satisfy new driver, remediation, or in-service training requirements.

 

3. Custom Training Catalogs – Online – We can put together a custom catalog built to your specifications so your employees get the right training. Courses can be pulled from our full transportation catalog or general topic courses like Sexual Harassment Awareness, Bloodborne Pathogens, Time Management, or Stress Management.

 

 4. National Association for Pupil Transportation (NAPT) Professional Development Series – Online – NAPT, in partnership with School Training Solutions (STS), offers NAPT Professional Development Series courses online. You can begin working on Certified Pupil Transportation Specialist (CPTS), Certified Supervisor (CSPT), and Certified Director (CDPT) certificates or work toward your recertification.

 

Our full catalog is available on the website, and I’ve also linked directly to it in this email. I would be happy to send any additional information. For those who have already requested information, it is on the way.

Thanks again for visiting the booth! Have a great day!

Happy Independence Day!

Happy Independence Day

School Training Solutions would like to wish everyone a safe and exciting Independence Day.  In honor of the 4th of July enjoy these 5 facts you may not know about this holiday:
1. Two future presidents signed the Declaration of Independence: John Adams and Thomas Jefferson. Both died on July 4, 1826 – the 50th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration.
2. July 2nd was actually the day the second Continental Congress voted for our independence. John Adams even wrote in a letter to his wife, “The second of July will be celebrated by succeeding generations as the great anniversary festival.” However, July 4th became the day our independence is celebrated as that was the day Congress officially adopted the Declaration of Independence document.
3. John Hancock was the only delegate who actually signed the Declaration of Independence on July 4th.
4. The Bristol Fourth of July Parade in Bristol, Rhode Island is the oldest continuous Independence Day celebration in the U.S.
5. July 4th was not made an official holiday until 1870 and was not a paid federal holiday until 1938.
As you celebrate today with family, BBQs, and fireworks, take a moment to reflect on the bravery, strength, and commitment our ancestors possessed, as well as that maintained by our military service men and women in order to ensure our freedom.

Thank You, Oklahoma

Thank you all for visiting our booth and attending the presentation about online training at the 2014 OAPT Tradeshow in Norman, OK. I enjoyed seeing everyone again this year. I noticed a lot of training trends, but the three most popular topics I heard from booth visitors were:
