“I come from a background of heavy haul transport and crane rigging including a few years of high rise construction from the concrete to the finishing quality control and hand over. So far, we have covered in great detail in the online portion of ground disturbance, basic line locating, drill operation and all the aspects of safety for horizontal directional drilling. There is a lot of information that I had no idea about before I took this course. The hands-on training is very comprehensive including virtual machine training on the Ditch Witch simulator to prepare you for the real machine. There are many intricacies of the operation that only real time practice with a real machine can get you. The instructors are very patient and will guide you step by step if needed as many times as it takes until everyone is at the same level. I am very happy with my choice with the HDD program and am looking forward to continued employment in this field.”
