Technical Assessment Test Online 2 - TATO 2
TATO 2 is an advanced truss industry specific test to determine a truss technician's level of knowledge and ability. It is a useful tool for taking inventory of design department skills, and helps clarify training priorities for individuals, as well as the entire design office.

TATO 2 covers more advanced material from the Truss Technician Training (TTT) programs and should give managers a sense for whether or not a technician is ready for TTT. SBCA originally developed TATO 2 at the request of truss design software companies in order to maximize software training time of incoming students.

This is a great tool that will offer our industry an opportunity to hire talented and qualified truss technicians ... easy-to-use exam statistics page, which allows you to review time spent on each question, consider the average score and revisit each question so you’ll know exactly which questions were answered incorrectly. In addition, it will bring the truss industry to a greater level of knowledge, as well as enhancing the integrity of that valued position. In my opinion, for those who use it, the test itself will elevate the type of applicant and therefore pay huge dividends.
