Hoisting and Rigging Certification

Description
Hoisting and rigging accidents are far too common, often leading to extensive property damage, terrible injuries, or even death. Hoisting and Rigging Certification is designed to provide workers involved with hoisting and rigging operations with the knowledge and skills needed to perform their work safely.
This eLearning has been built into four logical modules:
- Hoisting and Rigging Hazards
- Safe Working Loads (SWLs)
- Hoisting and Rigging Equipment
- Lift Classification and Requirements
Learners must achieve a minimum score of 75% on the final exam to receive certification. Upon completion of the eLearning and final exam, additional evaluation tools will be provided.
