Dear Colleague,

NTI's Workplace Safety and Security Program and the FTA Office of Safety and Security are pleased to announce the availability of a new course entitled Infectious Disease Awareness and Prevention.  As part of the rollout effort, a series of FREE train-the-trainer sessions will be held across the country.  Participants will leave the session with everything they need to implement the training at their agencies including an Instructor Guide, Course Slides and Instructor Notes, and a Participant Manual. 

Infectious Disease Awareness and Prevention is designed to provide transit employees with the knowledge and skills to:

 *       Identify the types of diseases to which they may be exposed

 *       Discuss how these illnesses are often spread

 *       Describe how they can protect themselves and others from these diseases

 *       Explain the proper methods for disposal and decontamination of infectious material or contaminated items and areas

To accomplish these objectives, the course integrates lecture, visual aids, participant interaction, and learning activities. A detailed course description and outline are being sent as a separate attachment.  To register for a FREE session, simply return the attached registration form. You can also register on-line after March 1 at NTI's website at:
