Shop Area For Hands-On Training

Students at GOMACO University spend half of their time in the shops for lessons in diagnostics. On specially designed trainers, students familiarize themselves with the location of components and the operation of controls. They are shown how to set pressures, calibrate slope sensors and adjust steering systems. After students familiarize themselves with the controls and maintenance procedures, the instructors will disable the machine and the students must diagnose the problem and make corrections.

GOMACO University Paving Center

To meet the demands of increasing enrollment, the GOMACO University Paving Center was added for the 2001 class season. The classroom holds 44 students, and the training bay is equipped with a training simulator. Classes at the Paving Center focus on mainline paving, 3D machine guidance, and the IDBI. The Paving Center is located one short block from the administrative GOMACO University building, so students may walk back and forth between the buildings for meals and other activities.
