The below Technician Career Development Program – Pyramid shows the layout of the steps in
technician career development.
The participation in the HMS specific product trainings which are offered in this documet are requiring
certain previous trainings which are listed in the curricula pyramid below.
It is not compulsory to have those foundational pre-trainings completetd before entering the HMS
courses, but it’s highly recommended.
The following pages are showing the available types of technical service training for the HMS product
range. The courses are usually conducted in the training center of the HMS factory in Dortmund,
Germany.
Please refer to our annual ‘factory trainig schedule’ on the following pages for training courses which
are conducted at the Dortmund location. The training courses are to be foung on the DPC webpage.
You may use the search function and use the machine modelto search for the certain itmes e.g. “6060”
and the system will show all available training courses and technical training materials.
All technical training courses can also be conducted at worldwide Caterpillar, Dealer or Customer
locations. Please refer to the conditions of ‘on site trainings’ on the following pages to get more input on
requirements for the conduction of the courses.
HMS ‘on site’ operator training courses are also offered for the whole product range, please find more
