About 15 years ago, equipment managers at the country's largest construction companies wanted a resource where a body could learn how to be an equipment manager -- a training course for learning how to decide how long to keep machines, the best ways to finance them, and share ideas on how to manage maintenance and repair during their useful life. They asked Dr. Mike Vorster, a civil engineering professor at Virginia Tech with uncommon depth of knowledge in equipment, to create a training course for them.

The result is one of the most unique training opportunities available in the industry, an equipment-executive development course. By sheer good fortune and divine providence, Construction Equipment has fallen into presenting Dr. Vorsters Institute.

I admit this course isn't for everybody. But take a look at the program details -- http://www.constructionequipment.com/community/862/CE+Institute/23394.html. If it might have some value to you, we'll look forward to meeting you there.

That ain't a bad price if I didn't enjoy working in the field I would really consider it.
