Mobile/Crawler Crane Safe Operation Courses
This course provides comprehensive training on the safe operation of mobile and crawler cranes in construction and industrial environments. Students will learn about crane types, components, and their functions, focusing on safety protocols and proper handling techniques. Emphasis is placed on understanding load charts, weight capacities, and the correct rigging methods to prevent accidents. Practical sessions will allow participants to operate cranes, developing skills in maneuvering, lifting, and positioning loads under various conditions. The course covers pre-operation inspections, maintenance procedures, and recognizing potential hazards on-site. Safety is a primary focus, including understanding stability, avoiding tipping, and ensuring compliance with industry regulations. By the end of the course, participants will be qualified to operate cranes efficiently and safely, adhering to best practices. Graduates will be prepared to pursue certification and employment in construction, logistics, and heavy equipment operations.
This qualification is evaluated using assessments and Multiple-Choice Questions (MCQ). To receive this qualification, the learner must pass both tests with a certain percentage.
The qualification has recommended course duration of 4-5 days.
Note: However the course duration may be increased to meet additional learning needs if required but not reduced.
