How It Works
Certification Components
-
NCCER's Crane, Rigger and Signal Person Certifications utilize assessments (written test) and practical examinations (hands-on tasks) to evaluate and verify the knowledge and skills of craft professionals.
-
Professionals who successfully complete both the assessment and practical examination of a specific certification pathway through an approvided provider and have at least 4 years of documented experience are considered NCCER Certified.
Certification Providers
-
To become an approved Crane, Rigger and Signal Person Certification provider, a company must apply for accreditation through NCCER as an Assessment Program, as well as be endorsed to specifically deliver the Crane, Rigger and Signal Person programs. Accredited and endorsed programs can certify their own employees. They may also choose to serve as a certification provider for the public.
-
Organizations who are not yet accredited and endorsed through NCCER are still able to certify their craft professionals through an approved public provider: Crane Certification Providers | Rigger and Signal Person Certification Providers
