After a year-long hiatus, VTA’s senior outreach program, "Train the Trainer," is back to help individuals and organizations build their senior clients' confidence to ride public transit. This free, comprehensive travel training provides participants with a solid foundation to use public transportation safely and confidently.
Train the Trainer
Thursday, July 10, 2025 | 10 a.m. – 4 p.m.
Innovation Center, VTA Headquarters, 3331 North First Street, San Jose
The 6-hour training program is a hybrid experience that combines classroom and field learning. Participants will begin with classroom instruction led by VTA staff, during which they will learn about transit basics, fare options, safety, and other important topics.
After covering all the material, participants will apply what they’ve learned by taking a trip using VTA's transit services to a designated destination. The overall goal of the program is to empower participants to share their knowledge, enabling them to better serve their clients and help seniors utilize transit for their travel needs.
