This course will prepare students for work in the dump truck driving industry. Students will be able to operate vehicles with a gross vehicle weight of 26,000 pounds or less, as long as the vehicle being towed weighs more than 10,000 pounds. The first week of class will be in-depth lecture and text which will include safety, inspections, air brakes, and the basic responsibilities of dump truck transportation--as well as how to become and remain a dumptruck driver. The second week of training, students will begin hands-on/yard segment which includes straight line backing, off set left or right backing, and 90 degree alley docking.  The purpose of this program is to offer advanced dumping and hauling skills training for OJT trainees interested in the Truck Driver training classifications. This training is geared towards individuals who have acquired at least a CDL Class B permit, and need additional training to operate single-rear axle trucks for transporting construction material. Vehicles may have beds such as dump, flat, water tank, etc.. Participants will leave this training with the ability to enter the Truck Driver- Off Road OJT training classification, which will allow them to operate a truck on the work site, and on the road with a licensed driver.
