Finding a job in the construction industry can be difficult. Many companies say that they'd hire you if you only had some experience--but in order to get experience, you have to get hired in the first place! For many potential employees looking to break in, it can seem like an impossible situation.

There is one way around it, however. By taking one of our courses here at the Heavy Equipment Operating School in Eugene, Oregon, you can bypass the whole experience/no-experience problem by getting construction equipment training that will teach you as much, if not more, about heavy equipment use than an on-site job. In addition to getting basic operating skills, you'll learn a lot about safety, maintenance, and many other issues that even experienced operators deal with on a day-to-day basis.

Here at the Heavy Equipment Operating School, we offer two different courses: advanced or basic. Both are very comprehensive. The basic course takes place over three weeks, and involves five day a week, all-day classes in such topics as Equipment Maintenance and Basic Operation. The advanced course covers similar ground, but lasts for six weeks.

In both these courses, you'll get plenty of hands-on experience operating actual equipment. And the best part is that when you're done, our Job Placement Center will use all the resources at its disposal to help you find a position that you're satisfied with. If any of this sounds appealing, please feel free to contact us over the phone, at 800-265-7535.
