2010 Wharton Transportation Executive Program (Invitation Only)

July 26 - July 29, 2010

Overview

Intended for top public sector executives, the Wharton Transportation Executive Program (WTEP) emphasizes the critical role played by finance and studies its interrelationship with other related disciplines. Participating transportation leaders from the state, regional, and local levels will form a cadre of transportation finance thought-leaders who can accelerate the development of policies, adoption of techniques, and transformation of organizations. WTEP is a 3-day program that will be held once each year at Wharton's state-of-the-art Steinburg Conference Center on the campus of the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia.

This year's enhanced and updated program, led by industry experts and Wharton lecturers, will guide participants through top issues for transportation finance officials today, including:

The Art of Persuasion: Making the Case for Transportation Investment and Revenue
Valuing P3 Approaches in Project Finance Initiatives
Program and Project Evaluation
Corporate Strategy Development and Implementation
Policy and Management Aspects of Public Private Partnerships

Program participants will include public sector senior staff with project finance responsibility from state DOTs, transit agencies, MPOs, tolling authorities, and other stakeholders.
