With HDD Circuit, Vermeer is working to help grow the industry with trained operators,” said Tony Bokhoven, Lifecycle training manager at Vermeer. “We have heard a consistent message from underground contractors that they are having difficulty completing work due to a lack of qualified drill operators. Including the development of a bore to plan, as well as basic drill maintenance and inspection. During each two-week course, students will be exposed to topics on HDD safety, jobsite evaluation and setup, drill operation best practices, underground utility locating and potholing best practices, drilling fluid mixing and testing, proper bore and pullback techniques The HDD Circuit training program is a tuition-based, two-week instructor-led program that provides a mix of classroom time with hands-on experience in a small-group learning environment for contractors’ employees. In a response to a shortage of drill operators in the horizontal directional drilling industry, Vermeer has introduced HDD Circuit – an intensive horizontal directional drill (HDD) operator training program.
