The training started with bus and trolley operators. Service could be impacted as employees are pulled from their regular duties.
"It seems like maybe they're running like 20 minutes slower than usual," said John Bowser of Willow Grove.
The goal is to have that specific group finished with training by Labor Day.

As a result of this, passengers should expect some delays while riding SEPTA.
SEPTA officials say they will try to post information regarding delays on its website and app in real time for those who need it.
Safety training is expected to last up to eight weeks.
Septa will provide updates on service as the training continues.
