NYMTC’s Brown Bag Webinars
At NYMTC, connecting with the public isn’t just a priority - it’s at the heart of everything we do. We’re committed to keeping the people who live, work, and travel throughout our region informed, engaged, and part of the conversation around transportation planning. One of many ways we do that is through our popular Brown Bag webinar series.
Ten months a year, NYMTC hosts free, virtual lunchtime sessions, inviting everyone—from seasoned industry professionals to curious community members—to tune in and explore the latest transportation projects, research, and innovations shaping our region. It’s an easy, engaging way to stay informed, and for industry professionals, there’s an added bonus of gaining certification credits through the American Planning Association.
