Build the foundation for a power engineering career with our heavy oil operations technician (HOOT) program.
In less than year you can become a qualified 4th class power engineer. That’s an entry to jobs wherever there’s a steam power plant. Our unique programs also includes heavy oil operations.
It comes from hands-on training in our Husky Energy Power Engineering lab. It's where you’ll learn and practice job ready skills. Learning continues in an industry practicum.
Before your December practicum, you’ll take a first step towards certification. You're prepared to write Part A of the Alberta Boiler Safety Association (ABSA) 4th Class exam. You can challenge Part B at the end of the program.
