Choptank Transport, based in Preston MD, announced that four of its employees recently completed and passed the Transportation Intermediaries Association (TIA) rigorous CTB (Certified Transportation Broker) course.

Justin Hall (logistics team leader), Cindy Binnendijk (logistics coordinator), Jason Nickle (account executive), and Danis Muzzy (general manager, Atlanta GA office) are now part of an elite group of transportation industry specialists.

Developed by the TIA, the program is an intensive three-month course designed to expand the student’s basic knowledge of the brokerage and transportation industry as well as increase the professionalism and integrity of property brokerage. The four-hour final exam covers three sections: basic business principles applied to brokerage; traffic management and contracting for transportation services; and legal and regulatory issues. To become CTB-certified, participants must pass each of the three sections.

As part of Choptank Transport’s continuing education and training program, the CTB course is offered gratis to all qualifying employees.
