Mobile Crane Inspector Certification Course
Certifying your inspectors to the National Commission for the Certification of Crane Operators (NCCCO) standards strengthens your operation. Our CCO mobile crane inspector course covers all the necessary information involved with certification. We designed this three-day program to include topics like documentation, operational testing, load testing, and visual inspections.
The course balances in-field practice with interactive classroom exercises to effectively prepare experienced operators for successful certification. Interested applicants must fill out an Experience Form and receive approval from the NCCCO before starting our mobile crane inspector certification program.
Documentation is to include work history, relevant technical training, certifications, and accreditations. CICB’s Mobile Crane & Rigging Inspector Training Program satisfies the CCO requirement for crane inspector technical training.

Have questions about crane inspector certification or related training programs? Browse these FAQs to find answers about CICB's crane and rigging training options.
How long does CCO® Mobile Crane Inspector certification last?
CCO® Mobile Crane Inspector certification remains valid for five years from the date of initial certification. NCCCO requires recertification during the 12 months prior to expiration, which involves passing the applicable Crane Inspector Written Examination(s) and complying with NCCCO's Substance Abuse Policy and Code of Ethics.
What are the eligibility requirements for CCO® Mobile Crane Inspector certification?
Candidates must be at least 18 years old and possess a minimum of 2,000 hours of documented work experience within a five-year period related to maintaining, inspecting, servicing, repairing, or modifying cranes. NCCCO requires candidates to submit an Experience Form for review at least two weeks before registering for exams, accompanied by supporting documentation. A $50 Experience Form Processing Fee applies.
What is the difference between a crane inspector certification and a qualification?
CCO® Crane Inspector certification is nationally recognized and obtained by passing the required written examinations, which incorporate practical inspection scenarios through image-based questions. OSHA identifies crane inspection responsibilities under 29 CFR 1926.1412 and requires certain inspections to be performed by a qualified or competent person, depending on the inspection type.
For OSHA compliance, qualification depends on whether the inspector meets the applicable qualified-person criteria for the inspection task, such as having a recognized degree, certificate, professional standing, or extensive knowledge, training, and experience to perform the work. CICB provides training for both certification preparation and qualification programs.
