To All Candidates:

Crane Specialists, Inc. will be hosting a NCCCO articulating crane school class beginning on Wednesday March 11, 2026. This course will include all training materials and exams that are required to obtain your Crane Operators NCCCO Accreditation. This is a two-part test that consists of a written exam and a practical exam. Operators should be experienced in operating articulating cranes and should possess basic math skills. This course is intended for operators with experience. It is not designed to be an operator’s development course. A paddle style radio remote control crane will be provided for practical exams. Candidates will be given ample time to practice the course.

The Crane Operators NCCCO Accreditation meets or exceeds all of the new ANSI/OSHA rules. Our class will cover ABC (articulating crane with hook), ABL (boom loader-by request) and ABW (articulating crane with winch) classifications. With a passed written and practical exam, the candidate will receive a certification card that is good for 5 years.
