West Fargo students to train on heavy equipment

North Dakota’s Building Trades Unions and industry partners are helping give high school students a hands-on introduction to careers in the skilled trades through a new heavy equipment training “sandbox” in West Fargo.
The training site was developed through a partnership between the Cass County Career & Technical Education Center (C3TEC), the Career Innovation Center at NDSCS, International Union of Operating Engineers Local 49, and North Dakota’s Building Trades Unions.
Apprenticeship Programs Continue to Grow Across North Dakota

Building Trades Unions across the state are seeing record enrollment as more individuals choose careers in the skilled trades. Our programs provide hands-on training, competitive wages, and a pathway to a strong future.
