Two-Day Akkerman Factory Certified Guided Boring System Training
Register now for two days of Factory-Certified Guided Boring Equipment training at the new state-of-the-art D.H. Akkerman Training and Development Grounds in Brownsdale, MN. This training package, conducted by Akkerman’s field technicians, is comprised of hands-on instruction for pilot tube installation using our Model 240A Guided Boring System.
The training center, D.H. Akkerman Training and Development Grounds, pays homage to Maynard’s father, Don Akkerman, affectionately known as D.H. Don was a true innovator, initially establishing himself as a general contractor. His innovative spirit was born out of necessity, driving him to pioneer new approaches for project success. The decision to name the training center after him was a natural choice, reflecting his legacy of ingenuity and dedication to excellence.
