\n Quick answer<\/span>\n

What does G7 backhoe loader training involve?<\/h2>\n <\/div>\n
\n

Backhoe loader training prepares you to operate a machine with two working ends<\/strong>: a front loader bucket for loading, carrying and backfilling, and a rear backhoe for trenching and excavation.<\/p>\n

At NIT, the plant-operator programme currently runs for two months<\/strong> and is approximately 70% practical and 30% theory<\/strong>. For the NIT pathway, learners complete a valid Class B licence before progressing into Category G training.<\/p>\n <\/div>\n<\/section>\n\n
