Fuel Management 101 Workshop - Jan. 20th, 2011

The Fuel Management 101 workshop gives fleet managers practical advice and tools to help save money on fuel and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. With fuel consuming a large part of a fleet's budget, improving fuel efficiency will make your organization more competitive and improve your bottom line. And with emissions standards getting tougher and more customers looking at the environmental credentials of their suppliers, cutting your greenhouse gas emissions is becoming essential as well.

By participating in Fuel Management 101, you will acquire the skills you need to create and implement a fuel management plan that works for your company, and then measure and improve on it over time.

Who should attend?

The Workshop is designed for managers, particularly fleet managers, who are looking for ways to achieve fleet efficiencies and drive down costs.  Companies that run mixed fleets, school buses and highway trucks, from owner operators to those with fleets of 500+, can benefit from the training.

What will participants learn?

Fuel Management 101 is a full day workshop that combines classroom instruction with case studies and group work to encourage participants to share experience and skills. Each of the four workshop modules give the participant hands-on training with sample worksheets and formulas for calculating baseline measures and fuel consumption, fuel reduction opportunities, and actual savings. The workshop facilitator will also provide guidance on how to put together a clear and actionable fuel management plan to put cost savings into place.  On completing the workshop, each participant will understand how to:

benchmark your fleet; create a successful plan; sell your plan to management; implement your plan; and analyze your results and chart a future direction.
