MCC Diesel Technology — AAS Degree (Diesel Service & Heavy Equipment Tracks)

About This Opportunity

MCC's Diesel Technology program prepares technicians for the commercial truck, heavy equipment, and agricultural equipment industries — one of the highest-demand segments of the skilled trades market nationwide, and particularly relevant in Omaha given the city's position as a logistics and transportation hub. The AAS program offers two specialization tracks: Diesel Service (focused on commercial trucks, fleet maintenance, and Class 6–8 vehicles) and Heavy Equipment (focused on construction and earthmoving equipment). A shorter Diesel Truck Career Certificate is also available for faster entry into the workforce. MCC's Diesel program offers access to Kubota Technology training and certification. Diesel technicians are among the highest-paid non-degree trades workers — commercial truck technicians in Omaha can start at $22–$28/hr and advance to $40+/hr with specialized certifications and experience. The program is financial aid eligible. Contact program coordinator Scott Resler at 531-622-5803 for current program details, schedules, and tracks.
