 Technician Training Path FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) and Answers
Q: What is the Technician A: The Training Path is the recommended training that each technician must take for
Training Path? his or her technical training development. In the future, development skills
training (e.g. HDSI) or safety training may be added.
Q: Technician Training Path or A: ProTech rolled out the original Machine Training Path in April 2011. We
Technician Career Development currently call the path for technician training a Training Path. In the future,
Path? Caterpillar is working to transition from calling a Technician Training Path and
may begin calling a technician’s development path a Technician Career
Development Path (TCDP). For now, HOLT CAT calls it a Training Path.
Q: How long will this Training A: Depending on the technician’s progress and supervisor’s business needs, the
Path take to complete? expected timeframe will be from 12 months to 6 years based on the experience-
level of a technician. As Caterpillar develops new products, new training may be
added to the Training Path in the future.
Q: Can I get credit for past A: ProTech will work with a technician and supervisor to provide credit for past
training or job experience? training or appropriate job experience. A technician can take a knowledge
assessment or be observed performing the “hands-on” tasks on-the-job.
Q: What is a technician’s A: A technician’s role is to own his (or her) training. Of course a technician will
responsibility? work with his supervisor to prioritize training, but ultimately a technician owns his
training – just like a technician owns his on-the-job performance. A technician
must help his supervisor track his training using UltiPro Self-Service.
Q: What is a supervisor’s A: A supervisor’s role is to work with each of his (or her) technicians to prioritize
responsibility? training based on job requirements. Just as a supervisor works with Human

Introduction The HOLT ProTech Technician Training Paths  offer a comprehensive

training road map to help guide the learning development of HOLT CAT
technicians. The program includes the following:

 Assessments
 Web-based courses
 Instructor-led Courses
 Structured On-the-Job Training (OJT)

Training Paths The following HOLT ProTech Technician Training Paths  have been
developed for technicians:

 AG Technician Training Path

 CAT Support Welder Career Path
Crane Technician Training Path
Technician Development Process
Introduction The HOLT ProTech Technician Development Process offers an
effective process to help guide the learning development of HOLT CAT
technicians. The process is listed below.

Techn ici an Career Developm ent Process

Training Path A technician and supervisor should sit down to

1 Discussion discuss the technician’s Training Path and create an
individual development plan for the technician using
the Recommended Training Path documents on the
following pages.

2
Training History A technician and supervisor review the training
Review history (Ultipro Self Service, CAT DPC, @my
Classroom, etc.) for the technician. NOTE: Call
