Heavy duty equipment technicians work on large mobile equipment—bulldozers, cranes, graders, loaders and earthmovers used in construction, mining, forestry and more. Truck and transport mechanics work on trucks, buses and highway transport vehicles for dealers, garages and transportation companies. Heavy Equipment and Truck and Transport Technician is a one-year certificate program offered in Saskatoon. Build the knowledge and skills students need to service, maintain, diagnose and repair heavy equipment, trucks, buses and transport vehicles. Students will get training in: Air conditioning and heating systems Brake, steering and suspension systems Electrical and hydraulic systems Engines, fuel systems and power trains Equipment operation and maintenance Trade math and blueprint reading Use of shop equipment and tools Welding Students will learn from highly qualified instructors in Saskatchewan Polytechnic’s well-equipped heavy equipment shop facility at 135 English Crescent in Saskatoon. The industry is a big supporter of Saskatchewan Polytechnic's students, which means students will learn on advanced equipment. Students will also participate in an industry-based two-week work experience. Saskatchewan Polytechnic graduates are in demand. When students graduate, they will have the knowledge and skills students need to sell, operate, maintain and repair heavy equipment, trucks, buses and transport vehicles. Students can start their career in an equipment dealership, transportation company, public transit operation, service and rental company.

Students could also open their own business.
