About our Programs
We want to prepare our students for promising careers and provide them with the skills they will need to build their futures and our future communities.
AIEO trains students to operate variety of earthmoving equipment. Using a combination of classroom and behind- the wheel instruction, we introduce students to heavy equipment and provide them with a better understanding of basic safety, maintenance, controls, and components.
Once classroom instruction is completed our participants get group and individual time with a journeyman operator instructor to get hands-on, behind the wheel instruction on the machine that is being learned. At the end of the course, students will complete a written test to obtain their craft certification.
The classes are kept short to ensure the participant is job ready in as little time as possible. Participants can take any combination of trainings. Contact us to find out when the training you want starts!
