NCCCO Certification Programs

NCCCO is officially recognized by Federal OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health Administration) as meeting OSHA and ANSI/ASME requirements for crane operator, rigger, signalperson, crane inspector, and lift director qualifications. 

NCCCO is accredited by the National Commission for Certifying Agencies for fairness, validity, and reliability in testing.  NCCCO’s Mobile, Articulating, Tower and Overhead Crane Operator, Signalperson, Rigger Level I and II, Lift Director and Crane Inspector programs are also accredited by ANSI.

As a proud supporter of NCCCO, CICB offers Preparatory Training Programs for the NCCCO Exams, along with scheduled Written and Practical Exams. CICB offers crane practice on approved NCCCO courses, as well as the NCCCO practical exams on Lattice Boom Crawler Cranes, Hydraulic Boom – Swing Cab Cranes, Hydraulic Boom – Fixed Cab Cranes, Articulating Boom Cranes, Service Truck Cranes, and Overhead Cranes.

“I took the one-week Crane Operator course at Orlando. The program was run very well ... As I run the crane today, I still think about things he showed me in the training. I would recommend this course to anyone.”
