Overview

Compact excavators are powerful digging machines. Under the Ontario Construction Regulations (231/91) operators of Mini Excavators must be "competent" in the operation of that equipment.

In order to do that, our program takes students through a theory session using a PowerPoint presentation along with hands-on training followed by a written exam.

Upon successful completion each student will be given a wallet card indicating that they have sucessfully completed the course.
