OPERATOR TRAINING and SKILLS ASSESSMENT

VISTA was founded in 1991 by former service and operator training managers of JI Case. Our company develops and conducts onsite and hands-on heavy equipment operator training and skills assessments worldwide.

TRAINED EQUIPMENT OPERATORS: VISTA’s training programs will help your operation attract and retain key equipment operators, enhance operating efficiency, upgrade safety standards and awareness, decrease exposure to OSHA citations, and reduce machine maintenance costs.

CUSTOMERS: Contractors like Koch Industries, dealers and government agencies such as Kane County, IL, City of Libertyville, IL-DOT, CT-DOT, National Park Service and U.S. Fish and Wildlife make up the majority of our onsite training customer base. See training map.
