NYAPT is a membership-based professional association incorporated in 1974 as a “501-c-6” non-profit corporation. Our members are employed in school districts, BOCES, community and technical colleges, private school bus operators and community-based programs. Our members come from many levels within the school bus industry, including supervisors and managers, mechanics and technicians, trainers and safety specialists, and dispatchers.
Our Board of Directors is comprised of six officers and directors from each of our twenty chapters who come from all corners of the state. Our association operates through a series of program and ad hoc committees and presents a full slate of programs and offerings for our members each year. Our chapters are engaged in a variety of learning and advocacy activities in their local communities.
