Workforce Development

MTI supports a wide range of educational programs, for adults as well as youth.

Through its education program, MTI sponsors the annual Garrett Morgan Sustainable Transportation Competition that introduces middle-school students to transportation issues and an annual Summer Transportation Institute for high-school students. MTI also sponsors The Mineta Transportation Institute Elementary Poster Contest for students grades 1-6 and Essay Contest for students grades 6-12. In partnership with elementary teachers and students, MTI developed Elementary Lesson Plans that introduce 1-6th graders to the basics of how people and goods are moved. The Mineta Leadership Academy is devoted to developing exceptional public sector leaders to serve the transportation industry.

For opportunities for partnership, please contact MTI staff via email.
