Our Overhead Crane Operator is one of our most popular training programs. It covers everything your operators need to know to safely operate the different types of overhead cranes. Since most overhead cranes are operated from the floor and their job includes rigging the load, we rely heavily on our acclaimed Rigging handbook. This program is easy to facilitate and will make learning very enjoyable for your students.
