TIDA Cargo Skills & Liability Skills Seminars


The TIDA Cargo Skills & Liability Skills Seminars (prior to 2025 called TIDA Cargo & Skills Course Seminars) is the industry's annual event specifically catering to new motor carriers, trucking insurers, defense attorneys and claims servicing company professionals. 

The Cargo Skills Seminar is a one-day event designed to educate attendees on how to recognize, investigate and defend claims and lawsuits that arise from the loss or damage to goods and to manage situations following a cargo claim against a carrier or insured.

The Liability Skills Seminar is a two-day event following the Cargo Skills Seminar designed to teach attendees critical thinking skills with real-world scenarios and key strategies in all areas for the successful handling of trucking claims. Attendees have the option to attend one or both seminars.

"Exceptional suite of subjects related to cargo and long haul trucking claims that were very well presented and thought out. Knowledgeable and engaging presenters in a smaller setting made it easier to ask questions, share information, unique circumstances and experiences with the group and fellow attendees." - 2023 attendee
