Description
Motor grader operator (MoGO) training is led by experienced operators who teach others efficient and safe operating practices.
For 2021, we will be offering classroom only and 2 sessions each day. Participants will have the opportunity to register for a morning or afternoon class. The session, which includes instruction and presentations, primarily focuses on blading techniques for different tasks, roadway/roadside cross section elements, safety, and equipment. Participants are often from several cities or counties, which promotes discussion and exchange of ideas and techniques.
Who should attend?
This training is designed for motor grader operators and their supervisors. For 2021, since registration is limited, we encourage agencies to allow their newest operators to attend.
Course participants should be familiar with basic equipment operations prior to attending.
Instructors
Each MoGO program is taught by a team of two instructors who have had extensive on the job experience operating motor graders. During the classroom portion of the program, the instructors answer questions, promote group discussion, and share their own expertise.
