General description
These courses are designed as a classroom and hands-on training program. We offer several levels of training as seen in the chart below. These courses cover all the OSHA/ASME requirements for overhead crane operation including the reasons behind the requirements. They begin with the fundamentals such as identification of major crane components and focuses on the safe and proper operation of the crane. Course lengths will vary depending on the specific type of tailoring to meet specific operations desired by the customer.
