NCCER Course Certification offerings on-line/on-site. Other Courses will be added on request.
Generally I recommended that High Schools who are using the Construction Pathway offer Core, Carpentry Level 1, and Carpentry Level 2. In addition, I recommend offering 4 pieces of equipment commonly used on construction sites, Skid Loader, Rough Terrain Forklift, Scissor Lift, and Backhoe.
(I consider this Pre-Apprenticeship training)
Note: If you want to offer Heavy Equipment Operations training please consider collaborating with NUCA, Purple Wave, and the Caillouet Foundation Inc (Click Here to see more)
