Construction and Equipment Technology is a dream come true for those students who like machines! During the junior year students learn how to operate and maintain large equipment such as a backhoe, bulldozer, forklift, tractor, skid loarder, an excavator, and a dump truck. Students are then taught basic concrete and masonry skills, surveying, mobile power repair, and mechanics. After being exposed to all of this, students enrolled in the program choose to specialize in on eor more of these areas: CDL, heavy equipment operation and surveying, concrete and masonry, or mobile power equipment.
