Overview

Heavy Equipment Operator Industry Training Program

Love the thought of having control over a large piece of machinery? The Heavy Equipment Operator (HEO) Training Program provides the basic training for working with large equipment.

This program includes theory, safety tickets, and hands-on training on real equipment at a job site just outside of Prince Albert. You’ll train on two pieces of equipment which may include the crawler tractor, excavator, front-end loader or motor grader. You’ll also earn safety tickets such as First Aid/CPR ‘C’ and Ground Disturbance II.

When you complete this program, you’ll be prepared to operate heavy equipment in the construction, pipeline, or mining industry.

This program is approximately 5 weeks long.
