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 crane operator training:

LEVEL ONE
- Small Hydraulic Cranes
- Large Hydraulic Cranes
LEVEL TWO
- Lattice Boom Cranes
- Articulated Boom Cranes
LEVEL THREE
- Tower Cranes
- Digger Derricks

These programs are designed 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.

Specialized Training Program

ATS offers both beginner level programs and employer specific customized training at its Sun Prairie, Wisconsin location and at remote locations throughout the country in:

- NCCCO Crane Operator Training, Testing and Certification

- NCCCO Rigger-1 & Signalperson Training, Testing and Certification

- OSHA Compliant Rigging & Signal Person Training, Testing and Qualification

- Class-A CDL Commercial Driver Training, Testing and Licensing

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) ™.

This program is an excellent add-on to either the mobile crane or heavy equipment training programs.

I just want to say thank you for the training and certification I received at ATS. I am now working for Tanco running a 50 ton Grove RT. I also run the forklift, skid steer and backhoe making $26.00 an hour with $10.00 hire per diem. We travel all year spending a few months in each place building storage tanks.

Been here for the last 3 months for heavy and crane and it’s always nice to see the staff and catch up on things. Really enjoy coming back. The staff is really good at what they do.

Chris is a phenomenal teacher. He takes pride in his work and is very informative. I think that he does well at keeping people calm and uses his experience to help others. I really enjoy this school and I think it’s a positive atmosphere.

After 8/1/14, I will be entering second crane program. Up to this point, I couldn’t be happier with my decision to come here. The staff is great and instructors are phenomenal. I would most certainly recommend this school to any one of my friends, and I look forward to my upcoming training.

I would like to thank Associated training services for their help in furthering my career as a Crane Operator in Midland, Texas. I cannot express how much the training has helped me advance and show my new skills in the field. Thanks Associated Training Services.
