Ancora Training Wins Renewal Contract With TxDOT For Heavy Equipment Operator Training
ARLINGTON, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Nov 11, 2024--
Ancora Training is pleased to announce the renewal of its contract with the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) to provide heavy equipment operator (HEO) training for its employees.
Ancora Training is the workforce development arm of Ancora, a leader in education and training programs since 2013. Ancora Training’s educational solutions have been deployed to community colleges, government agencies, and Fortune 100 companies across the nation.
TxDOT’s HEO training initiatives, which will occur at more than two dozen TxDOT sites across Texas, will focus on the safe operation of various heavy equipment, including asphalt distributors, dozers, maintainers, backhoes, telescopic hydraulic excavators, draglines, skid-steers, sweepers, loaders, pneumatic rollers, flat metal rollers, trucks, bucket trucks, and digger derricks. Ancora remains a trusted Commercial Driver's License (CDL) training provider for TxDOT.
"The renewal of this contract reaffirms our commitment to delivering high-quality training that meets the needs of not only TxDOT, but also customers who desire to enhance the skills of their existing employees," said Natalie Williams, Vice President of Client Operations at Ancora Training. "The positive feedback we've received from employees who have completed our heavy equipment classes speaks volumes about the effectiveness of our instructors and programs."
Thus far in 2024 alone, Ancora has successfully trained over 70 TxDOT employees in the safe operation of heavy equipment. The new contract is for one year, with three renewal options which could extend the partnership through 2028.
Ancora Training has been working with TxDOT since 2020, and is also involved in educating their CDL drivers. Ancora’s dedicated team supports TxDOT employees throughout their training journey, from enrollment to completion and licensing, preparing them to be well-equipped to handle challenges and keep Texas moving.
Ancora Training is a solutions provider for organizations who want to upskill, reskill, or otherwise strengthen their workforce through professional training programs.
