CCC'S HEAVY EQUIPMENT OPERATOR TECHNICIAN PROGRAM
In 2016, Central Community College in Hastings launched a new Heavy Equipment Operator Technician program. The AGC Nebraska Chapter chose to invest a total of $500,000 in this program - $250,000 was initially distributed in 2016, and then $25,000 has been given to the program annually for the next 10 years. The state of Nebraska has a huge need for heavy equipment operators, and this program has begun to help fill those gaps in the workforce.
