FARMINGTON HILLS, MI — Exciting news from NTEA! They’ve just added two more breakout sessions to the packed Work Truck Week® 2024 educational program, announced presenters for OEM panel discussions and other training sessions, and extended Green Truck Summit hours.
Get ready for Work Truck Week 2024, running March 5–8, 2024, at Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis, Indiana. It’s going to be jam-packed with Green Truck Summit, The Work Truck Show®, NTEA Annual Meeting, Ride & Drive, educational sessions, and more. With Green Truck Summit on March 5, educational sessions from March 5–7, and Work Truck Show exhibits open from March 6–8, it’s going to be a can’t-miss event. North America’s largest work truck event, Work Truck Week is produced by NTEA – The Work Truck Association™. For a complete schedule and to register, visit worktruckweek.com.
But the excitement doesn’t stop with the event itself. Work Truck Week is more than just a trade show—it’s an experience. The educational program features in-depth Special Sessions and shorter Breakout Sessions focused on ideas and strategies to help attendees improve efficiency, implement best practices and enhance operational growth.
According to Jennifer Mitchell, NTEA’s senior director of content development, “Work Truck Week education and training sessions bring in experts from across the global commercial vehicle industry to help attendees stay current with trends, technology developments, and vehicle changes. Sessions will address challenges attendees are facing right now, like grappling with recruiting and training employees, specifying and upfitting alternative fuel vehicles, and maximizing productivity.”
Green Truck Summit updates
Not to mention that NTEA has added 40 minutes to Green Truck Summit, an intensive program focused on the commercial vehicle industry’s ongoing shift toward zero emissions. It’s now even better than before, starting at 8:20 a.m. and concluding with a reception from 5–6 p.m.
And that’s not all—there’s a panel of representatives from leading chassis manufacturers who will share insights into the evolving vehicle technology and fuel landscape during the GTS session. Mark Dickens of GM Envolve, Gordon Wolverton of Navistar, and Harrison Wessinger of Isuzu Commercial Truck of America will discuss what’s on the horizon for the next five years, including the innovations, trends, and technologies that will shape the industry.
Additionally, Carl Lisek, director of Drive Clean Indiana, will explain how Clean Cities technical assistance experts and rural communities are working together to overcome the challenges small communities face when deploying clean fuel technologies in a new GTS breakout session.
Green Truck Summit is fuel-agnostic and covers a wide range of advanced fuels, including electricity, propane, hydrogen fuel cell, and biofuels, as well as technology that reduces emissions and improves fuel economy. With a keynote address by Mary Aufdemberg of Daimler Trucks North America, four general sessions, and four sets of 30-minute breakouts, it’s going to be an information-packed event.

Don’t forget, Work Truck Week (WTW) and Green Truck Summit (GTS) Conference Package registrants can attend any WTW Breakout Session from March 5–7.
