Heavy Equipment Operator – Bulldozer
We currently offer this Heavy Equipment Operator (Bulldozer) training course online, using a self-paced, and interactive learning approach. Upon completing the online part, students may then complete the lab portion of the course at any of the 24 Community Colleges around the state.
The operator will learn equipment applications, attachments, operating controls, preventive maintenance requirements, and basic operating techniques. This course is designed for students interested in a career in construction, heavy equipment, and earthmoving equipment operations. Operators of all skill levels will learn concepts, objectives, and safety practices required for operating a bulldozer in construction zone settings. This course teaches you about safety, machine controls, maintenance, inspection, and operating procedures. For experienced dozer operators, it’s a handy tool to refresh their knowledge. Operators learn about issues related to road and highway construction. After completing the course, participants get 16 hours of hands-on equipment operation training.
Upon successful completion of both online and hands-on portions of the course, a participant will receive an ACCS credential.
