Students can achieve qualified operator status by successfully completing written and hands-on assessments. ITI Qualification is available for Fixed and Swing Cab. Additional fees may apply.

Candidates for the mobile crane operator course are individuals who wish to be apprentices in crane handling, crane maintenance personnel, and current operators who have been trained by "field practices," but not yet exposed to the formal side of crane subjects.
