Transportation of material and equipment is one of the most crucial jobs in the construction industry. Whether job sites are close or far, chances are that the materials needed for the day got there by truck. The MTECH Truck Driver Heavy program is a one year program that will prepare you with the knowledge and experience to maintain trucks, perform equipment checks, operate two and three axle trucks, operate four or more axle trucks, and driving off-highway trucks.
The Truck Driver Heavy course consists of in class learning and an opportunity for an apprenticeship. Note: Employment in professional driving may depend on the ability to meet employer and/or licensing requirements (i.e., health and drug screening, a satisfactory driving record, driving test, etc.), which is the student’s responsibility.

From instructors who deliver a relevant, industry-driven curriculum to academic and career counselors focused on ensuring you have the tools you need to succeed, we all share the same goal: your success as a student.
Our program is an employer sponsored program, which means you need to be hired by a participating employer or have your current employer sign up as a participator. Contact tsmith@agc-utah.org for a list of participating employers.
Most participating employers cover the cost of tuition and books for their employees. Cost per semester can vary slightly, but most semesters total cost is under $800.
Sponsoring employers are required to pay students a minimum wage based on a sliding scale up to the minimum journeyman wage. Most companies pay far more than the minimum.
