2 THE POINT TRAINING FLASH CARDS

These training cards have been designed to be quick refresher trainings for drivers that can be reviewed in the break room, while parked and waiting for a passenger to finish an appointment, or at the beginning of the day before beginning a route.  Each card has training information on the front and a set of questions on the back.  After the driver finishes reviewing the information, he/she can answer the short quiz.  There is space at the bottom of the card for both the driver’s and his/her supervisor’s signature.
