NCCCO Crane Operator Test Preparation and Certification Class

We offer certification through both the NCCER and the NCCCO. Both certifications are nationally accredited by ANSI and meet the OSHA requirement for certified operators on crane and derrick construction sites, but they have different testing processes and exam categories. For a summary of the differences, click here.

We offer both public and onsite options for both certifications. Our public NCCER classes are held throughout New England, but our public NCCCO classes are only held at Shawmut Equipment in South Easton, MA, due to the requirement that CCO test sites be registered in advance.

What’s New

Covid - 19 Statement

We are not currently holding public classes, since putting strangers together in a room right now would be unsafe and irresponsible of us. Having said that, we know safety and compliance for your business cannot always wait. If you have an urgent safety or compliance need, please contact Anna at 303-817-5663 or This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. and let's talk about whether we can deliver something for you in a virtual format.

Like you, we have no idea when things will begin to return to normal but we are hoping and planning for public classes to resume in late April. We have an NCCER rookie cert class on the schedule for May 11 - 15 in NH, a qualified signal person and basic rigging class for April 27 in VT, and an NCCCO operator cert class for May 11 - 15 in MA. You can register for these classes and hold your spot either online or by calling/emailing Anna, and then we will keep you posted as to whether the dates need to move.

Should the need for social distance continue past this spring, we are already investigating ways to put our prep classes and testing online and/or into virtual formats. Practical exams cannot be done virtually, but we can continue to do those on a one-on-one basis, taking extra safety precautions such as sanitizing crane controls and requiring everyone to wear gloves and maintain distance.

Please stay safe out there and call us if we can help with anything!
