Crane & Rigging Training in Nebraska
Industry-Leading Training at Your Location.
Nebraska Crane Training
Businesses operating cranes face increasing pressure to meet OSHA regulations while keeping projects on schedule. Qualified crane operators, riggers, and inspectors are essential to maintaining safe lifting operations, protecting workers, and reducing the risk of regulatory penalties and insurance exposure. Crane training from CICB delivers comprehensive, on-site solutions that allow organizations to meet training requirements without removing teams from the workplace.
On-Site Crane Training
Traveling operators off-site for training can delay projects, increase costs, and reduce productivity. On-site crane training in Nebraska brings certified, experienced instructors directly to customer facilities, allowing training to take place on the equipment, processes, and environments employees use every day.
This approach supports supervisors' scheduling flexibility, reduces downtime for operations leaders, and enables safety teams to align training with workplace-specific hazards and lifting practices.
Crane Operator Training in Nebraska
OSHA requires crane operators in construction to be certified under 29 CFR 1926 Subpart CC, while operators in general industry must meet qualification criteria established by their employer. Crane operator training programs from CICB prepare experienced operators for certification or qualification by focusing on safe operation, load handling, equipment limitations, and regulatory expectations.
Rigger Training and Certification Options
Rigging errors contribute to many lifting incidents. While OSHA does not require rigger certification, it does require that riggers be qualified by their employer. Rigger certification in Nebraska and qualification training from CICB support businesses by establishing clear criteria for safe rigging practices.
Training addresses load control, hardware selection, sling use, and proper methods for safely connecting rigging. Programs are available for both experienced personnel and individuals new to lifting operations, supporting compliance and operational consistency across teams.
Crane Inspector Training
Cranes must be inspected regularly to meet OSHA regulations and applicable ASME standards. Crane inspector training in Nebraska prepares personnel to identify deficiencies, document findings accurately, and support safe crane operation.
Training addresses inspection criteria, recordkeeping requirements, and regulatory responsibilities, helping organizations reduce equipment-related risk and maintain compliance across their fleet.

I highly recommend CICB to any organization looking for high‑quality, safety‑focused training delivered by people who truly care about their craft and their customers."
Our site has been using CICB for a number of years to train and maintain certification for our crane operators. They exhibit an extensive background in the crane industry and their approach to training is very thorough and comprehensive. CICB’s professional instructors are highly dedicated and motivate everyone in the class to strive for excellence. The material is well-organized and the training is presented in a clear and concise manner. The classroom instruction and actual hands-on training go beyond our expectations. Our employees leave the class with a better understanding of crane operation, their capabilities, and job safety.”
This class was one of the best I have ever coordinated for our employees! Jason was, by far, the best instructor I have ever seen present an extremely technical course. His personality was perfect for the audience and made him very relatable. His technical proficiency was exemplary! He is completely capable of and, for the most part, did teach the entire class without referring to the slides or reference material. He also went way above and beyond in his commitment to ensuring the students not only learned but retained the material and stayed late into each evening to assist those requiring additional assistance. The employees could not say enough great things about Jason's skills and commitment to learning. We now have 10 employees trained to operate our cranes and, even though the majority of them do not work together, a group of employees that overcame some adversity and became a cohesive team. They are begging me to bring the CICB back!”
The Instructor Larry Kime is absolutely one of the best instructors I have ever had, and I have a degree in mechanical engineering. Larry’s knowledge both written and practical is current and accessible. I would recommend Larry to a new beginner or someone that has been in the lifting industry their whole career."
Subject Matter Experts Delivering Practical Instruction
CICB instructors are certified in adult education and experienced in operating cranes and managing lifting operations. This practical background enhances instructional quality and allows trainers to address real workplace challenges rather than theoretical scenarios. CICB maintains a staff large enough to both deliver training and proctor exams, meeting separation requirements that require the trainer and exam proctor to be different individuals.
Comprehensive Training Solutions
Rather than coordinating multiple providers, organizations can schedule crane operator, rigger, and inspector training during a single visit. This simplified approach saves time by consolidating services at a single location, reducing administrative burden, and eliminating scheduling conflicts.
Training programs can also be reviewed and refined to align with existing company procedures, supporting consistent application of safety practices across departments and sites.
