The Hazardous Occupation Training, more commonly known as the tractor safety course, is being offered again this year for youth who intend to operate farm machinery. If you are 14-15 years old (or 13 turning 14 this summer) and plan on driving a tractor this summer for someone other than your parent or legal guardian, you must take this course in accordance to the U.S. Department of Labor requirements. This year’s training will be held at the Pratt Community College (Pratt, Kansas), from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. on Saturday, April 27.
Deadline for enrollment is 5 p.m. on April 12. Space is limited, so if you need this course, enroll as soon as possible. Enrollment packets and registration fee information can be obtained by contacting the Barber, Pratt, Stafford, Kiowa and Kingman county extension offices. If you cannot attend this training, please contact the Barber County Extension Office at 620-886-3971 or jgoodno@ksu.edu to find out the dates and locations of other training sessions across the state.
