Details
TRB conducted a webinar on Thursday, November 5, 2015, from 2:00 to 3:30PM ET that featured research conducted by TRB’s Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP). The research discussed topics of ever growing concern to the airport community. Facility managers and planners, information technology professionals, and airport consultants and tenants gained an understanding of the issues caused by WiFi disruptions and cyber-attacks, and were provided with resources and best practices to help address these concerns.

Participants must register in advance of the webinar, and there is no fee associated with this webinar.

This webinar provided 1.5 Continuing Education Units for Accredited Airport Executives. This webinar has met approval by the American Institute of Certified Planners for 1.5 Certification Maintenance Credits.
