This week, Alexander will be a part of an esteemed panel of transportation regulators and association leaders during a webinar called What Are Transportation Regulators Doing To Respond to COVID-19? The two-hour webinar, hosted by International Association of Transportation Regulators (IATR) President Matt Daus of Windels Marx, will be held this Thursday, April 30 at 11 a.m. ET. Registration is available here

The association will also be holding a No Operator Left Behind (NOLB) Virtual Summit on May 12 starting at noon ET on the NLA’s Facebook page.  Alexander and Bill Faeth of Limo University will host the event, which will include several guest speakers who will cover a variety of topics to be announced. NOLB is an added-value benefit for NLA members who are smaller operators (19 vehicles or fewer) to offer support and education so that they can thrive.
