Yes. Our overhead crane operator training meets the OSHA 1910.179 and ASME B30.2 general training requirements for safe operation of overhead, bridge, and gantry cranes.
No, OSHA does not require a license to operate an overhead crane. However, OSHA does require that all overhead crane operators complete proper training and certification under OSHA 1910.179 before using an overhead crane in the workplace. WorkplaceSafety.com offers crane training and certification aligned with the OSHA standards and requirements.
Certifying your overhead crane operators with WorkplaceSafety.com is fast, simple, and OSHA-compliant. Here’s how it works:
Buy Registrations & Assign Training – Add registrations to your cart, complete the secure checkout, and assign training to your operators.
Operators Complete Online Training – Operators complete the training at their own pace at the most convenient time without disrupting operations. You can track their progress, view training reports, and print certificates as they complete the course.
Conduct Practical Evaluation – Have a manager, supervisor, or even an experienced operator complete the practical evaluation using the included practical evaluation checklist.
With WorkplaceSafety.com, you can train multiple operators, track progress, and ensure OSHA compliance—all in one place.
The overhead crane certification and training course takes approximately 2 – 3 hours to complete. The course is self-paced, so this time can vary. Experienced operators typically can complete the course faster than newer operators.
To operate an overhead crane in the United States and Canada, operators need to complete overhead crane training that aligns with the legislative requirements and overhead crane standards (OSHA, ASME, CSA).
This includes completing an overhead crane training program that covers overhead crane fundamentals, safety, and legislation. This training can be completed via online overhead crane training or in a classroom setting.
Then, the crane operator must receive workplace and equipment-specific training on their specific equipment from the employer they will be working for. The employer must also complete a practical evaluation to confirm the operator can safely operate the equipment they’ve been trained on. WorkplaceSafety.com provides employers all the required tools and content to meet OSHA’s crane training requirements.
Operator certification must be renewed every three years or sooner if the operator is involved in an incident, observed operating unsafely, or assigned to a new type of crane. This is aligned with the standards and industry best-practices.
You can take your overhead crane certification training online from anywhere in the United States. There’s no need to find a local class — our OSHA-compliant training is available 24/7 and can be completed at your own pace. Once you finish, you can download your certificate and wallet card instantly. Any employer that you end up working with will perform the hands-on evaluation at the workplace on the specific equipment you’ll be using.
