4 Types of Heavy Equipment Training

Training to be a heavy equipment operator is not something you could take lightly. As Baby Boomers begin to retire, more positions for operators will open up. Now is the time to start your equipment training if you want a lucrative career in heavy equipment.

But you should know that there are different types of heavy equipment and, therefore, different types of heavy equipment training.

Here are 4 types of heavy equipment training. Pick the one that is right for you.

  1. Heavy equipment – First off, let’s define what we mean by heavy equipment. On the typical job site, you’ll run into these types of big machines — Backhoes, wheel loaders, scrapers, excavators, bulldozers, road graders, dump trucks, skid steers, and forklifts. At Heavy Equipment School, you’ll learn how to operate them all.
  2. Mobile crane – Mobile crane operators are a different breed. You’ll learn how to operate fixed and swing cab hydraulic cranes, lattice booms, articulated booms, and get your rigger/signalperson certification.
  3. Rigging – If you desire to become a rigger or a signalperson, then you can take training and receive certification just for that career position. Riggers make darn good money and enjoy a long, fulfilling career–especially if they excel at the job.
  4. Truck driver – Finally, if you have any desire to be a long haul truck driver or a construction site driver, then you can get your CDL license and be a huge asset to any work crew. No construction site can do without a truck driver, and these positions require special certification so they pay more.

You can start your career as a heavy equipment operator on the right foot with the right training.

Now is a Good Time to Start Training

In just a couple of days, Associated Training Services will begin a new session of our heavy equipment training. The good news is, you still have time to enroll.

If by any chance, you can’t make the July 13, 2015 class date, we’ll have another one start on Monday, August 3, 2015, and then another one kicks off two weeks later. If you’re even thinking about starting a career as a truck driver or heavy equipment operator, then we’d encourage you to join one of these class dates.

Why Summer is Good for Heavy Equipment Training

The summer months are good for heavy equipment training for two major reasons:

  1. You get plenty of classroom time
  2. And when you are outside you’ll be working during the hottest months of the year, and if you can do that, the rest of it is a piece of cake

No joke. You get classroom time in a heavy equipment school. That’s because we want to make sure you understand all about the equipment and good safety practices before we turn you loose to operate it. Our instructors are seasoned pros and leave no stone unturned in teaching you everything you need to know to be a good heavy equipment operator.

Plus, if you can operate the equipment in the hottest days of the year, then you can operate it any time.

Don’t Put Off What You Can Do Today

That’s not to say, of course, that winter isn’t a good time for training. If you are ready for a new career, then any time is good for training.

The sooner you start your heavy equipment career, the more money you’ll make in the long run. Why wait? If you’re ready, the best time is now.

Several Kinds Of Heavy Equipment

There’s a good reason why Associated Training Services deliberately gets our students on several different kinds of heavy equipment during training. We’ve seen that your ability to operate one kind of big machine doesn’t necessarily mean you can jump on another and know how to use it safely.

Since most heavy equipment operators will be on a job with several types of equipment, there’s always a chance you could be asked to run something you don’t usually operate. If you have at least been exposed to it during training, you’ll have a better idea of how to do it. During training, you’ll be on many different machines:

  • Backhoes
  • Scrapers
  • Bulldozers
  • Graders
  • Skid Steer Loaders
  • Wheel Loaders
  • Excavators
  • Off-Road Haul Trucks
  • Front End Loaders
  • All-Terrain Forklifts

Each one has a different function and operates with slightly different controls because of that function. This isn’t like going from a sedan to an SUV, and the stakes are much higher. The more familiar you are with different machinery, the more valuable you are as an employee because you can be trusted with incredibly expensive equipment.

There’s another reason why we expose students to different types of heavy equipment during training; you get an idea of what you like and don’t like to run. If you know for sure that you love using a backhoe but hate using a forklift, that’s good to know before applying for a job that requires you to be the main forklift operator.

ATS Heavy Equipment Operator Training School has been putting people and machines together successfully for a long time — all kinds of people, and all kinds of heavy equipment.
