ATS Heavy Equipment Operator Graduates
"I lost my job to outsourcing so I needed a new career in a field that is stable and that pays well. ATS gave me the training and experience to land a job as a heavy
equipment operator in just a few weeks. It was the best move I have ever made."
Thank you ATS,
Jeff R.

"My time and experience at ATS was a high for me. As a young boy I would sit for watching and wishing I could be one of the operators. At the end of their work day i
would return back to work site and climb into the giant loader . At that age it was giant. Then pretending that I was controlling the machine. ATS has helped my dreams come to
reality."
Thank you all at ATS.
"I drove for Road Construction, Inc. in Rochester, MN. We kick asphalt, in all we pave. The training at ATS and Diesel Driving School was perfect for this. The truck
are all 9 & 10 speeds, and thanks to all of the training backing up trailers, getting into the paver was a breeze. Thanks again! Also, please note that I have also done double
duty loading trucks with a Trojan loader. The equipment isn't in top shape but its a start."
Thank you
Zachary
"Dear Red,
Hey, have I got a success story for you. I graduated in late October of 2005. I found employment with Herr Construction from late October until next spring I was making $20.50
per hour. After the spring of 2006 i challenged the operating engineers practical exam in Coloma Wisconsin and I am happy to say I'm a Journeyman with Local 139 of the operating
engineers.
I'm sending one pay stub from a company that I worked from November 2006 until around Christmas. I was quite happy with the pay, as would any one. Thanks for the help and keep
up the good work."

P. S. Here is a picture of the equipment I used at Herr Construction. They kept there stuff in good shape. Notice the GPS mast on the 750 Deere. I was the only one able to
operate the system.
"I spent about 15 years at a scrap yard. I moved into management but didn't like it. I wanted to get into heavy equipment and excavation and knew I needed more training
that's when i found ATS in Ohio. I graduated in August 2004 and got a job as an operator right away and the Training was a huge help. The classroom work was what i really needed
because i had some equipment experience. The school was great and was just what I needed to start a great new career."
