• OETIM is a not-for-profit Private Vocational Institute that provides training for individuals interested in or already part of the construction industry.

Thirty-Five Years of Service Excellence

• The Operating Engineers Training Institute of Manitoba Inc. (OETIM) was established in 1986 as a joint Labour/Management not-for-profit organization with a primary directive of providing upgrading and training to people in the crane and heavy equipment industries. Dedicated to high-quality, personalized training, the institute has developed a solid reputation using its proprietary curriculum designated to heavy equipment operations.

• The Institute is governed by a Board of Trustees represented by labour and management personnel. The institute’s revenue is comprised of monies received from individual tuition, employer sponsorships, contract training from federal and provincial projects, and The Trade Improvement Trust Fund.

• OETIM is recognized as an educational facility through the Employment and Social Development Centre, a federal government division, and can therefore issue T2202 tax receipts to individuals who personally assume the cost of tuition.
