Qualified Rigger/Signalperson is a prerequisite before attending the Master Rigger training program. (Classes are scheduled on consecutive days so you can attend both in the same week.)
The Master Rigger course is for experienced riggers who have the math skills and want to pursue further credentials.
Students who qualify can earn a CIA Qualification or the program can prepare students for becoming CIC certified as a Master Rigger.
