Career opportunities in construction equipment, truck engine, and commercial engine fields are rewarding, challenging, and the people that can do the work are in demand.

Our two-year, college-level program teaches you how to service Caterpillar equipment using cutting-edge diagnostic and maintenance systems, advanced technologies, and high-tech tools. The program combines classroom and hands-on learning. No more sitting in class wondering if you're going to use what's being taught, you'll get to use what you've learned and you'll know why it's important.
