The Mobile Crane Operator Training program is specifically designed to upgrade the existing knowledge and skill levels of experienced operators, trainees, safety personnel, inspectors, maintenance personnel, managers and supervisors. The information provided in the classroom is reinforced with hands-on application sessions on mobile cranes at CICB’s Houston and Orlando training facilities or at your site. All personnel attending this program will gain significant and useful skills and will leave with a stronger understanding and appreciation of the requirements and responsibilities of Mobile Crane Operators.

Both five and ten day Mobile Crane Operator programs are offered. CICB recommends that trainee operators participate in the ten day program to gain additional knowledge and seat time in CICB cranes.

"Being new to the industry, I trained at CICB as a mobile crane operator and took my NCCCO examinations. I was very impressed with quality of training, the knowledge of the instructors, and the use of real cranes, not simulators. I now have a career in the industry, all thanks to CICB." C.S., Bourne, MA
