A couple of weeks ago, during our most recent AFFIRM class, SERTC welcomed Union Pacific Railroad (UP) to share industry knowledge and real‑world experience with first responders.

We’re grateful they took the time to come out, engage in training, and learn alongside us. Partnerships like this help ensure training remains relevant, practical, and field‑driven.
