read about our guaranteeOSHA will be implementing a federal standard that requires all crane operators to be certified, and that they are to be trained and certified through an accredited organization.
Nationwide Crane Training is one of the nation's best crane training companies, and helps candidates prepare for the exams and certification for the NCCCO.
Nationwide Crane Training, Inc. fully endorses the National Certification program offered by the National Commission for the Certification of Crane Operators (NCCCO), and will prepare candidates for the CCO examinations.
What does it take to pass the exams?
In order to pass the written exampe, the candidate must:
1. Pay application fees.
2. Pass the written core exam and any and all specialty exams with a 70% or better.
The practical exam consists of various tasks that the candidate must pass in order to obtain certification.
The exams are valid for a time period of one year. In other words, the written exam must be compelted within one year of the practical exam and vice-versa for the exams to remain valid. After both exams have been completed, the candidate will receive complete NCCCO certification.
Can a candidate test without attending a prep class?
Any candidate can opt to take the written exams without attending the prep class.
If a candidate opts to do so, they can purchase study materials here.
However, it is recommended that candidates attend the prep class to ensure that they pass. If a candidate opts not to attend the prep class and fails the exams, then the candidate needs to pay for sitting fees for the exam. The prep class prepares the student to pass the exam and it is also recommended that the candidate take the exam on the third day (right after the prep class to retain all the information taught in the classroom).
