The Connecticut Department of Transportation’s Telecommute Connecticut (TCT) program has teamed up with CBIA to generate awareness and education about telecommuting and TCT. CBIA and TCT are working together to provide access to information and resources.
The alliance between TCT and CBIA generates widespread awareness about the benefits of telecommuting and the state’s free TCT services among company decision-makers and top executives.
A key mission for both organizations is developing employer partnerships that promote commute alternatives, including telecommuting, carpooling, vanpooling and regional bus and train service.
