  We offer several versions of this program that are tailored to specific vehicles:

School Buses with wheelchair passengers.
Metro Buses with wheelchair passengers.
Vans for wheelchair passengers.

  For vehicles transporting wheelchair passengers a certified tie-down specialist should properly secure special needs passengers in public and private transportation.

  The latest equipment and existing technology are demonstrated in the classroom on mock-ups.

  Participants get “hands on” experience with the equipment and have timed competition to secure passengers properly.

  Safety procedures for the operation of the lift are discussed - these procedures include mechanical considerations as well as the safety of the passenger.

  ADA regulations concerning these procedures are explained.
