The Certified School Bus Driver Instructor Program is a program to train and certify individuals as school bus driver trainers.  This program should help a school district maintain a trained staff of drivers.  The Certified School Bus Driver Instructor training program is jointly sponsored by University of Central Missouri - Missouri Safety Center, Missouri School Bus Contractors Association (MSBCA), Missouri Association of Pupil Transportation (MAPT), and the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education, Student Transportation Section.  This program is usually conducted during the month of July and provides individuals with classroom and hands-on practical instruction activities.  The goal is to provide each trainee with a model curriculum and instructional skills necessary to design and implement a school bus driver training program (302.272, RSMo).
