CCTM: Certified Community Transit Manager Links
CCTM status marks the greatest performance and highest efficiency in the community transportation industry; it is proof of the ability to manage a comprehensive and dynamic community transportation system.
The program is built around a rigorous professional exam, for which CTAA offers a two-day study class.
Recognition
What recognition will I receive for becoming certified?
Besides the personal satisfaction of achieving certification, each individual will receive a certificate acknowledging the successful completion of the certification requirements. When certified individuals present programs or instruct workshops at CTAA-sponsored events, their certification status will be recognized. Your certification status will be shared with the membership of CTAA through periodic listings in CT Magazine. CTAA will verify your certification with prospective employers when you request it.
In addition, the certified manager's name, certification status, and pertinent data will be included in a "Register of Certified Community Transit Managers" publication, which will be available upon request to individuals responsible for recruiting professional talent in the community transportation field.
Preparing for the CCTM Exam
CTAA offers a course to prepare for the CCTM exam. It's a two-day course that touches on each of the exam topics and is taught on-site. We don't offer the course at a CTAA training location but rather arrange for our trainer to come to wherever the interest is. Up to 30 people can attend a class, so get in touch with your state's RTAP coordinator and your state transit association to express your interest.
