The Fann Contracting Apprenticeship Program

Fann has a 3-year (6000 hr) Operating Engineer Apprenticeship Program. The program is registered with and monitored by the Apprenticeship Division of the Arizona Department of Commerce.

Fann's Operating Engineer Program teaches a variety of skills that the company feels are necessary for the development of a well-rounded versatile operator. Apprentices are given opportunities to operate a variety of equipment including dozers, scrapers, backhoes, pavers, motor graders, rollers, loaders, and excavators and are allowed to choose a piece of equipment to specialize in. In addition, apprentices learn grade checking skills, traffic control, asphalt raking, pipe laying, and driving skills. Apprentices go through a number of classes, both self-directed and in the classroom. Safety skills are emphasized.

The Fann Contracting Apprentice Program gives preference to minorities and women who might not otherwise be given the chance to learn to operate equipment.
