Quinn Company partners with Reedley College for Equipment Technician Internships. Internships are a way for aspiring heavy equipment mechanics to get practical experience. Interns usually learn on-the-job skills related to their career and receive additional training and mentoring from their supervisors.
Certificates are stand-alone courses, while associate degrees award credits that can apply toward a bachelor degree. If you are looking for a self-contained education, you may prefer a certificate course. We recommend that new technicians obtain an associate degree through one of our partner programs. You’ll learn how to repair and service engines, hydraulics and transmissions from qualified instructors. Through our partnership with local colleges, you’ll also take courses in English, composition, science, social studies and math. At the end of two years, you’ll have an associate degree in applied science and the skills you need to become a full-time heavy equipment technician at Quinn.
