Heavy Equipment Training

ATS offers two levels of heavy equipment operator training which include operation of backhoes, bulldozers, excavators, wheel loaders, scrapers, all-terrain fork lifts, motor graders, and articulated off-road dump trucks. These are the types of equipment most common in the industries which hire heavy equipment operators. These programs also include subject matter such as grade reading, grade stakes, laser levels, site plans, site layout, soils, and safety.

Crane Operator Training

ATS offers three levels of mobile crane operator training which include:

LEVEL ONE
- Small Hydraulic Cranes

These programs are designed to teach a person how to safely operate these cranes and to help the student get their certification through the Nation Commission for the Certification of Crane Operators (NCCCO) ™.

Truck Driver Training

A Class-A CDL helps ATS graduates secure employment as a heavy equipment or crane operator. This license allows a person to haul their heavy equipment to a job site or drive a mobile crane on public roadways. These truck driving programs teach a person the basic skills and knowledge needed to drive a Class-A commercial vehicle and to get their Class-A CDL license. Students entering these programs must have their Class-A learners permit from their state of residence prior to attending.

Rigging/Signalperson Training

The ATS Rigging/Signalperson training is designed to give the student the skills and knowledge needed to pass the written and practical exams for certification through the National Commission for the Certification of Crane Operators (NCCCO) ™.
