REQUIREMENTS

​
  • ​Students must take a pre-assessment upon registration to confirm their eligibility for adult education and training services.
  • Those who do not qualify will be referred to post-secondary programs that will better support their learning and industry training.
  • ​Those who are eligible for Catholic Charities educational services will also need to apply for training funds through the WIOA adult program.
  • Prospective trainees will receive support from both Catholic Charities personnel and NM Workforce career specialists in completing and submitting their funding application. ​

Description of program from the NCCER website: ​

HEAVY EQUIPMENT OPERATIONS
Heavy equipment operators (HEO) not only work on regular construction building jobs, but also on infrastructure projects (roads, bridges, and ports, otherwise called non-building construction), and in mining and timber operations.
A trained and experienced equipment operator provides necessary skills for any project that requires moving and transporting heavy materials, or that demands any kind of earthmoving.


NCCER offers a three-level curriculum which will guide the trainee through modules covering each major piece of heavy equipment, as well as topics such as Civil Blueprint Reading, Soils, and Paving.

Subject Matter Experts (SMEs) are a vital part of NCCER's Curriculum development process. SMEs are construction and maintenance professionals who have journey-level experience and have experience teaching their trades to others
