Customized Training Programs for Operators of Overhead Cranes and Hoists

Crane Operators Training Programs

In Canada crane training is part of the requirement for applicable ISO certification and our programs are designed to meet provincial legislation.

During the training session, we review specific procedures that are part of the everyday work, performed by the attendees.

We bring critical parts to the classroom, some of them new and some abused for each of the attendees to handle.

We have videos that demonstrate graphically the correct procedures and results when they are not applied.

We review actual lifting practices that we are shown and provide recommended procedures for review by your safety committee. The Crane Training Canada Training manual provided, will become a resource and reference manual for the operators long after the course is over.

Our crane operator training program is designed to determine the safest and most productive methods to accomplish the specific tasks that are required by the company

The inspection and operating procedures that we teach are focused on all aspects of proper operation, including rigging and slinging.
