MISSION & DESCRIPTION

National Training Inc’s mission is to teach students a number of applied skills in selected professional fields where there is sustained and significant career potential. National Training Inc. educates its students to be employable and capable of professional growth, and further, to contribute to their profession and to a constantly changing, global society.

We are committed to providing our students with strong curricula emphasizing practical, usable skills blended with a relevant general education foundation. This is accomplished in a caring environment with personal attention and close faculty-student interaction. We offer education opportunity, with an “open door” admission component, to a diverse array of students, including high school graduates, Vocational Rehabilitation students, military personnel, national and international students, various companies, as well as non-traditionally prepared students.

We are entirely committed to giving our students the highest quality education possible to obtain entry-level employment skills in the heavy equipment operator and truck driving industry and provide both industries with quality, entry-level individuals who are able to satisfactorily complete their fleet job and contribute to their community.

National Heavy Equipment Operator School offers complete and fully accredited training for entry-level heavy equipment operators. Students train in Florida for jobs and careers on late model bulldozers, backhoes, wheel loaders, excavators, the very popular and versatile compact BOBCAT® excavators and skid steer loaders.

Training is offered via support from training partners at Industrial Tractor and Bobcat of North Florida.

National Truck Drivers School is a nationally accredited career school in Florida that has trained over 33,000 men and women since 1978.

Our unique courses and programs teach qualified applicants to drive the "Big Rigs" in a matter of weeks, enabling them to pass their CDL test and get their Commercial Driver's License and become safe, well paid operators of semi tractor trailers.
