National Alternative Fuels Training Consortium

Overview

National Alternative Fuels Training Consortium's training programs include online training through NAFTC's Learning Management System, classroom training, and use of companion guides, like iPhone/Android apps or quick reference guides. Content developed by NAFTC is used by about 50 National and Associate Training Centers. Information is conveyed to local communities through material developed in partnership with high schools, community colleges, and universities.

NAFTC has held National Alternative Fuel Vehicle Day Odyssey events since 2002 to provide greater public awareness of advanced technology vehicles and alternative fuels, such as biodiesel, hydrogen, natural gas, propane, electricity, and ethanol. National Park Service, U.S. Department of Energy Clean Cities Program, Greater Washington Region Clean Cities Coalition, AmeriCorps National Civilian Community Corps, and Smithsonian Institution were the national partners for the 2014 event held in Washington, D.C. The event was sponsored by American Honda Motor Company and the Propane Education and Research Council.

The 2017 date for National Alternative Fuel Vehicle Day Odyssey was April 20.
