Heavy Equipment And Transport Technology/Construction Equipment Systems |
| Looking for a new career? Like working with your hands? Is your job boring? Do you enjoy a challenge? If you answered yes to any of these questions, you should consider a career in Heavy Equipment and Transport Technology (HEATT) at Wake Technical Community College.
The demand for new technicians in our industry is continuing to grow. With new EPA standards placed on the heavy equipment and truck manufacturers to reduce emissions, our industry has seen a shortage of heavy equipment, truck, marine, and agriculture technicians. The main reason is technology.
