Abstract

The United States transportation sector is currently faced with a wide array of actual and potential new technologies and approaches, which could transform the nation’s transportation system. Even as these new technologies and approaches suggest the possible need for new skills, the nation’s transportation workforce already faces a skills deficit, independent of these new technologies and approaches. This conjuncture suggests the urgency of identifying needed skills for the transportation workforce.
