On Tuesday January 16th the Truck Training Schools Association of Ontario (TTSAO) Board of Directors voted unanimously to create a new seat on the board. This new seat was created to include the newly formed TTSAO Insurance Group. Lisa Arseneau, current chairman of the insurance group, will fill the new seat. Arseneau has been in involved in the trucking industry, on the insurance side, since 1987.

Arseneau says, “With the trucking industry being so Driver reliant, graduates are going to play a vital role. I applaud my insurer partners for recognizing and participating in the TTSAO Insurance Group in such a positive fashion. I am very honored to be accepted to the TTSAO Board and look forward to an exciting year!”

The insurance group consists of brokers and insurance company representatives who are associate members of the TTSAO. The TTSAO has always viewed insurance companies and brokers as an extended customer of the TTSAO schools. Following a student’s successful completion of a TTSAO course it is very important to carriers to ensure students are insurable so that industry can hire them. The TTSAO Membered Schools certify thousands of students every year and are the number one supplier of entry level graduates collectively to the industry in the Province.

Charlie Charalambous, TTSAO Director of Communications and Public Relations says, “The TTSAO Board of Directors is very excited to include representation from the Insurance Group on the Board. Lisa brings many years of knowledge and passion for the industry and we are all excited to have her on the board as we continue to grow the association”.
