  1. EMTA TRAINING COURSE PROPOSAL Cesare PAONESSA – AMMT Turin EMTA General Meeting – Berlin 17-19 September 2012

  2. WHY ANOTHER TRAINING COURSE? • Training courses in the field of public transport already exist. • In particular, UITP delivers an articulated training offer that meets the expectations of institutions, operators and authorities. • EMTA is the only organization addressed to (and made by) local transport authorities in big European cities. • EMTA members have already established a fruitful cooperation to share statistic data (Barometer), good practices (Working Groups) and, in general, to create a network across Europe. • A training course tailored to the needs of PTA’s is what is missing to complete the broad overview that EMTA already has on PT issues and wants to develop and extend in the future.

  3. HOW WILL IT BE ORGANIZED? • A series of short trainings (Two days long) to be delivered over a period of 3-4 years. • WHO: Scientific partner: the Florence School of Regulation • WHERE: First edition in Florence, in 2013 • WHEN: Two weeks before the April 2013 General Meeting • WHAT: Possible topics: • A fresh look at marketing for public transport • Function and technical specifications of PSO in contracts • Other subjects of interest – some hints can be Land use and transport policy integration, Cooperative planning with citizens • … suggestions are welcome!

  4. THE SCIENTIFIC PARTNER Florence School of Regulation European urban Transport Regulation Forum • The Florence School of Regulation (FSR) is a partnership between the European University Institute (EUI) / Robert Schuman Centre for Advanced Studies (RSCAS), the Council of the European Energy Regulators (CEER) and the Independent Regulators Group (IRG), and it works closely with the European Commission. • Its objectives are to: • organize policy events dealing with key regulatory issues; • provide state-of-the-art training for practitioners; • produce analytical and empirical research in the field of regulation; • promote networking, trough documents and ideas exchanges. • http://www.florence-school.eu/
