Loaders are common pieces of equipment used in most public works departments in Canada.
The FCIT Loader Operator Program is designed to teach operators how to be productive as well as safe while they are operating.
This training will focus on loading trucks with buckets and forks, running a pick, digging/removing material and rough grade.
This training can be offered year round. During the winter, the program will focus on snow removal tasks.
The training is 1 week long. There will be 3 hours of classroom training and 4 and a half days of practical training. There can be a maximum of 6 students.
Competency evaluations can be completed if there are operators who have experience with an additional day of training.
