We will feature training and speakers on several topics. Some of which I hope will cause us to think about CDL training in some areas that are overlooked. Dean of Workforce and Career Technical Education\, Darryl Spitzer\, will be speaking on High School CDL\, dual and concurrent as well as CDL as a credit elective. He will also speak on the subject of CDL programs operating in a “for profit” model. A representative of the FMCSA and Wyoming Highway Patrol will be speaking on various topics. The Wyoming State CDL supervisor will be addressing topics on the subject of “Why Modernized”? Our EWC medical and academic staff are presenting training topics on the subject of driver health and fitness as well as driver mental health. These are subjects that were never discussed for many of us. On Tuesday\, Kevin Hawley will lead a round table discussion on the subjects concerning CDL training and the trucking industry. Followed by a live demonstration of the Wyoming Highway Patrol and the use of safety equipment utilized at Wyoming Ports of Entry.  \n\n\n\nReg 1-2 Agenda 2026 EWCDownload\n\n\n\nHotel Information and reservation link: Hampton Inn & Suites Douglas 1730 Muirfield Ct\, Douglas\, WY 82633 Attendees can also call the hotel directly (307-358-0707) and give the group name and make their reservations that way.
