"My son graduated and was able to get a job within a month or so with the training that he received. He always had a skill for heavy machine operating, but was not PROPERLY trained, like he was at the academy. The heavy presence of ex military instructors made me that much more confident that this was a quality environment for him to be in. I highly recommend..." Read more

"Coming into this school I had zero knowledge as far as operating Heavy Equipment. Within three weeks of attending the school, I had a pretty good understanding and feel for the equipment and knowledge being taught at Level 1 as well as Level 2 in the final week. The instructors were always willing to help when needed, but had very high expectations from day..." Read more

"An absolute great academy. The instructors are very helpful and the career service woman Kristen Tanzer is very helpful and dedicated to her job. She’s the reason I have so many job leads and interviews set up. If you haven’t already, I encourage you to apply immediately. I just wish the program was at least two weeks longer for more seat and stick time. Ove..." Read more

"HCA is like no other school, from its thorough curriculum to its hands on training approach, no time is wasted in 6 weeks. What can you expect from school? Being certified with more knowledge than most guys who’ve been in the business for years and enough seat time to land you a good position is a start. The instructors are great and have YEARS of knowledge..." Read more

"You get certified on 8 machines and the school pays for your flights, food, and gives you a ride to and from school. You’d be foolish not to give this school a shot."

"I attended HCA through CSP with the U.S. Army before my retirement. I used this training and course to obtain a new career less than 90 days after retirement in a coal mine operating a D11 as a dragline crew member making over 125K a year. I would not have been able to make it past the application process, much less the interview if I had not attended HCA. Y..." Read more
