Boiler operators in Minnesota are required to be licensed through the Department of Labor, and our 32-hour Boiler Operator Exam Prep course will ensure your success on the licensing exam with virtually no outside study time.
Whether you are taking a Minnesota Special Engineer or Grade C licensing exam, this course will cover what you need to know to pass your boiler exam. Study materials and practice tests will be provided during class to ensure your success. This course includes at least one tour of the DCTC boilers room.
We can also customize this course to include high pressure boiler licensing. When you register, be sure to indicate which license exam you’re planning to take.
If you have a large group or need more extensive boiler training, we can work with you to set up a contract training in-person at your company site, at one of our campuses, or virtually. Email your custom training request for a pricing estimate.
