CRANE TRAINING
Iowa Association of Municipal Utilities is an NCCER (National Center for
Construction Education and Research) Mobile Crane Endorsed Accredited
Assessment Center authorized to conduct testing and practical examinations
for Mobile Crane Operator, Rigger and Signalperson candidates. NCCER’s
Mobile Crane Operator Certification, Rigger Certifications and the Signalperson
Certification Programs have been designed for accreditation by ANSI and meet
the requirements of OSHA Subpart CC, Cranes and Derricks in Construction.
All rigger level knowledge testing and skills evaluations will be conducted in accordance with NCCER testing procedures. Certification is granted through NCCER.
In addition to being knowledgeable in all basic and intermediate rigger tasks, the Advanced Rigger must also
demonstrate advanced level of proficiency in all the rigger tasks. Both the knowledge testing and skills evaluations
will be conducted in accordance with NCCER testing procedures. Certification is granted through NCCER.
Advanced Rigger performs specific rigging operations as they relate to:
The Advanced Rigger 3-day class, 5 participants max
CERTIFIED RIGGINGIntermediate Rigger 2-day class, 6 participants maxIn addition to being knowledgeable in all Basic Rigger tasks, the Intermediate Rigger must also demonstrate
intermediate level of proficiency in all the rigger tasks.
Performs specific rigging operations using:
The Intermediate Rigger is proficient in load dynamics and load weight estimation or determination as they
relate to the rigging operation.
The Intermediate Rigger:
• come-along and chain
hoists
• reeving
• rigging hitches and
knots
• anchor points
• synthetic ropes
• wire ropes
• chains
• spreader bars and
equalizing beams
• synthetic slings
• lifting points
• dollies
• trollies
• winches
• bars and levers
• rigging jacks
• links and rings
• plate clamps
• cable dogs/grips
• calculates equipment capacities
• applies D/d ratios
• calculates vectors
• calculates angles
• calculates boom angles and load radius as they relate
to lifting and/or rigging operations
• identifies and interprets load
indicator and safety devices
• understands and utilizes capacity
or load charts
• is familiar with the center of gravity
as it relates to the rigging operation
• understands and utilizes effects
of angles or indirect pulling in the
rigging operation
• demonstrates proficiency in the
direction of single, multiple
specialized lifts
• is knowledgeable and can
demonstrate proficiency in the
design, documentation, and
implementation of lift planning
• blind hoists • working in close quarters • lift procedures for personnelIAMU u 800.810.4268 u [email protected] u 5

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration standards for
overhead cranes state, “Only designated personnel shall be permitted
to operate a crane covered by this section” (1910.179(b)(8).“Designated,”
according to 1910.179(a)(35), refers to those individuals deemed to be
qualified to operate an overhead crane for a specific application.
While OSHA standards do not spell out overhead crane training
requirements, the American Society of Mechanical Engineers does
get specific in the ASME B30.2 standard. Section 2-3.1.2 states that
training has to be specific to the equipment and task, or application,
at hand.
ASME B30.2 even offers a “but not limited to” list of what a training
program should cover, as well as the responsibilities of a crane
operator and others involved in moving loads. It further states that
a company’s management is responsible to “provide training to
persons who will operate a crane” (Section 2-3.3.3(b).
This one-day, easy-to-understand class will be taught at your location
to all personnel who operate overhead cranes or underhung hoists.
Certified Signalperson 1-day class, 10 participants maxHaving a trained and competent signalperson is as important as having a trained and competent crane operator.
The Signalperson is proficient in the performance of hand and verbal signals, including the standard methods for
hand signals as required by ASME B30.2, ASME B30.3, ASME B30.5, and ASME B30.6.
The Signalperson demonstrates:• basic knowledge of crane operations and limitations
• crane dynamics involved in the swinging, controlling,
and stopping of loads
• the boom deflections from hoisting loads
• voice and radio communications
• personal fall protection methods
• emergency procedures
• hazards and restrictions with working in proximity to
