MOUNT VERNON – Knox County Career Center (KCCC) students in the building trades and metal fabrication and welding programs received lift training recently.
Students received the following certifications: Class 7 All-Terrain Forklift, Boom-Elevated Platform, Towable Lift and Self-Propelled Elevated Platforms.
Lift training is done yearly at KCCC. Ohio Rental and Holmes Rental donate all the equipment that is used for the training.
“We are one of only a few schools in the state that offer these certifications to students,” said Colby Clippinger, building trades instructor at KCCC.
Clippinger said, “By offering these certifications, it allows our students to start working on-site day one.”
