FMCSA grants TIA’s petition on training for brokers
The Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration has granted a petition from the Transportation Intermediaries Association regarding training requirements for freight forwarders and brokers.
According to FMCSA’s website, the petition for rulemaking has been closed and a letter notifying TIA that it had been granted was sent on March 11. A notice of approval still has not been published in the Federal Register.
In June 2023, TIA petitioned the agency for a rulemaking to implement and enforce existing provisions related to experience and training requirements for brokers and freight forwarders to enter the marketplace.
