We travel to Las Vegas several times each year, to provide DOT seminars for clients who travel from neighboring states as well as Nevada businesses. Many people find Vegas a convenient meeting place, at the crossroads of the tourism, manufacturing, construction and entertainment industries. We always use hotels that do not allow smoking and that do not include gaming venues, as these are not conducive to a quality training experience. Our clients come to learn about DOT Safety regulations in areas including driver qualification, drug & alcohol testing, hours of service limitations and maintenance as well as other areas in our four-day DOT Workshops.

Many customers in the southwestern United States have found a trip to Las Vegas is a good place to get away from the constant distractions of the workplace and concentrate on professional development.
