At Fehr & Peers, we value industry participation and understand that a career in transportation planning offers opportunities to make meaningful impacts on how individuals experience travel within their communities. Career Insights began as a webinar-based forum for up-and-coming transportation consultants to learn more about the industry and have some of their burning questions answered. From program’s start in 2016, we committed to making sure those answers were unfiltered—objective, transparent, and unbiased. With that spirit in mind, our program now offers webinars and resources to students from a wide variety of backgrounds who share a curiosity about transportation. Students have the opportunity to learn from and talk to Fehr & Peers professionals to explore how their unique experiences and interests align with opportunities to improve communities through transportation.
