This six-week in-class program provides students with a combination of training in fundamental heavy equipment operator skills as well as related training in surveying, safety and equipment servicing. Using high-end computer simulation equipment, students gain experience and confidence, before moving to hands-on heavy equipment operating.
Following the in-class program, students complete 120 hours of practicum. Practicum may be paid or unpaid at employer’s discretion, students are covered by Worker’s Compensation while on practicum. While Assiniboine strives to find practicum placements for students, the responsibility to find a practicum placement ultimately lies with the student.
