CICB’s Rigger Class A Training program is a fully customizable program, uniquely tailored to your company needs. The program typically is between four and five days long, and this training meets all the requirements for qualifying your riggers, with the addition of the complex scenarios unique to your lifts.

The course is math intensive and will assist any organization in maintaining compliance with all applicable regulations and accepted safety standards. This course of instruction provides uniform guidance for an organization to develop and manage an effective and efficient program for management to utilize in the proper use and inspection of rigging and rigging hardware.

The pre-requisite requirements for this program are that candidates must either have passed CICB’s Basic Rigger program or possess documentation from a nationally accredited rigging program such as NCCCO’s Rigger Level I.

The objectives of this dynamic program involve moving loads with non-traditional cranes, often with space limitations. The course is heavy in math, lifting calculations and team exercises. The information provided in the classroom is reinforced with hands-on application sessions with rigging equipment at CICB’s Houston and Orlando training facilities or at your site. All personnel attending this three-day program will gain significant and useful rigging techniques and skills.

CICB’s Class A Rigger program is particularly useful in industries with space limitation situations typically found in manufacturing, ship building and repair, machinery moving, and offshore drilling and production.
