Peterbilt Technician Institute (PTI) opened its fourth location with the expansion of service technician training in Denver on the campus of Lincoln Tech.
PTI provides students with 12 weeks of comprehensive training on Peterbilt equipment. The program covers various systems on the truck including, fuel, electrical, HVAC, suspensions, brakes, aftertreatment and PACCAR MX engines. Upon completion of the accelerated program, students will earn factory-trained technician credentials that can fast-track them to careers at more than 425+ Peterbilt dealerships across the US and Canada.
PTI has graduated over 1,000 certified Peterbilt service technicians in its 3 key geographic locations in Nashville, Chicago and Dallas-Fort Worth. Recruitment for the new Denver campus is now underway with classes expected to start Fall 2024.
“In 2023, PTI established a partnership with Lincoln Tech to enhance and expand service technician training opportunities geographically. The Denver location is another access point to train service technicians and increase the number of candidates available to join the Peterbilt dealer network and provide crucial skills to support Peterbilt customers,” said Danny Landholm, Peterbilt director of dealer network development.
The program leverages a learning approach that combines classroom and hands-on training to build practical experience. It emphasizes teamwork to enhance communication skills and incorporates web-based skill-building activities to ensure technicians possess comprehensive technical knowledge, enabling them to excel and deliver maximum uptime for Peterbilt customers.
