Visit CONEXPO 2020 and Leave NCCCO Certified

CICB is offering Preparatory Training for the NCCCO Exams for Lift Directors, Mobile Crane Operators and Articulating Boom Crane Operators at CONEXPO 2020.

The training will be held on March 8-9 in Las Vegas, just prior to the start of the convention.

The NCCCO certification written exams will be held on Tuesday 10^th and Friday 13^th at CONEXPO. Practical exams will be held on Wednesday 11^th – Friday 13^th. With onsite test scoring and instant results, attendees will be given the opportunity, if successful, to walk away NCCCO Certified.

The training program includes CICB’s Study Guide, which is authored and copyrighted by CICB on an annual basis. In addition, interactive classroom exercises will emphasize all parts of the NCCCO Core Exam and the mobile and articulating boom crane specialty examinations.

Candidates will be trained in the same room they are later tested in, ensuring a familiarity that will enhance their already excellent chances of success. Similarly, those taking the practical exams for mobile cranes will find their instructors are also accredited CCO Practical Examiners and will be administering the exams.

Lift Director

Research into crane accidents and prevention suggests 23% of the responsibility of any lift falls under the role of a lift director (Jim D. Wiethorn, Ph.D., P.E.). The figure almost doubles if the lift director and site supervisor are the same person.

In addition, OSHA’s Compliance Directive for the Cranes and Derricks in Construction Standard (29 CFR Part 1926 Subpart CC) mentions the role of Lift Director 41 times.

With more and more interest in the role, now is the time to get certified for this position.

Recertifying after 5 years

CICB’s pre-CONEXPO training is aimed at operators who need recertification on mobile cranes, or articulating boom crane operators with at least 6 months’ seat time.

Per OSHA 1926.1427(d)(4), operators are required to recertify every five years. In this case, the practical exam is not necessary, but the written exam must be taken. Test content will look markedly different from 5 years ago, given the newly revised regulations in OSHA 1926.1400 following the December 2018 revisions.

Included in those revisions is the requirement that every operator be certified through a nationally accredited agency, like the NCCCO. CICB’s training is deliberately structured with the NCCCO certification in mind and is a candidate’s greatest chance of success.

What Past Attendees Say:

“Due to my desire to make a career change, and after exhaustive research, I contacted CICB for my training as a mobile crane operator. Not only did they offer a full curriculum of the training I desired, but also a NCCCO Preparatory Course and testing facility in my immediate area. In my 30+ years of working in the construction industry, I have taken many safety training courses from a myriad of professional trainers. It’s a rarity to find one that is not only knowledgeable in the subject matter, but enjoys being able to share that knowledge with others. I feel that CICB is one of these rare trainers.”
