Advanced Pipeline

Catalog description

This course is restricted to students presently studying under the direction and oversight of an approved apprenticeship program, working in partnership with Columbus State Community College. This course is designed to improve the student's machine operating skills and training with a focus on pipeline construction. All students attending the pipeline course must have basic operating skills on dozers, excavators, or cranes. Each student will receive training on either dozers, excavators (backhoes) or side booms. Students will have ample opportunity to operate and practice on the pipeline equipment under the supervision of the instructor. This course may be taken more than once in order for the student to gain skills on each piece of pipeline equipment (dozer, backhoe, and side boom) for which this course offers credit.
