Abstract:

Efficient dissemination of research findings is essential to sharing useful information with the aviation community. The Airport Cooperative Research Program (ACRP) develops near-term, practical solutions to problems faced by airport operators through industry-driven, applied research projects. The ACRP Ambassador program is one of several dissemination initiatives that are strengthening ACRP’s connection to the airport industry. Ambassadors are volunteers who serve as liaisons between the Transportation Research Board (TRB) and ACRP, the research community, and airport operators. Through the Ambassador program, ACRP strives to improve stakeholder awareness of, and access to, ACRP’s solutions-based research products and encourage widespread use of the products by engaging with practitioners at industry events. In their first year, ACRP Ambassadors engaged the aviation community through 11 presentations; 13 exhibitions; and the distribution of more than 600 ACRP reports, 500 ACRP brochures, 160 ACRP synthesis reports, and 130 Impacts on Practice.
