On completion of the seminar, the 20 participants had the opportunity to take an online test for certification by the Maintenance Training Association of the Americas and 1.6 Continuing Education Units (CEU's).
"This class got rave reviews from the participants," said Randy Holthaus, GROWMARK grain systems marketing manager. "The trainer was very good, and the hands-on component meant the students could build their own circuits and ask questions to make sure they understood."
American Trainco offers similar courses in other skills, and Holthaus said he hopes to offer a variety of those in the future.
