5 Day Overhead Crane Operator Training Course' Book Now
Crane operators need to undergo formal training and assessment before they are considered licensed and capable to operate cranes. In the planning and construction industry, cranes are used on a daily basis and the fact that these items of machinery or equipment are so heavy duty means that special precautions need to be taken to ensure that safe use is made of them. Employees operating overhead cranes in the workplace should register for overhead crane operator training at MAKROSAFE, to ensure that they know precisely how to operate the unit and what to do in a potentially dangerous or emergency situation.
Our overhead crane training for novice learners and for recertification is the perfect course to send your employees on. This is a 5 day course for novice training and a 1 day course for recertification. There are various standards and regulations that must be adhered to when operating this type of heavy duty machinery, and our training methods are aimed at teaching operators to be compliant with these standards.
At the end of the course, you will be assessed by completing a knowledge assignment and by compiling a portfolio that demonstrates that you know how to apply the learned knowledge to your daily tasks. On completion of the course, all operators will be knowledgeable on safe handling and maintenance practices which are compliant with the standards set out by the actual crane manufacturers and legislation.
