Educators Corner
The Operating Engineers Training Center is committed to reaching out to both middle and high school students, as well as community colleges. We do this by working with career counselors, classroom teachers and career events. We host visits to the Training Center for student and educator groups and attend many career fairs throughout the year across Oregon and SW Washington.
For information on our apprenticeship programs see Operating Engineer, Heavy Duty Repairer and Technical Engineer for descriptions on what they do and what it takes to be a successful apprentice.
If you have students that are not yet ready to apply to our program or need to add additional experience to their application to make it competitive, the following organizations provide approved pre-apprenticeship training and assistance.
