What On-Site NCCCO Training Includes
Holder Crane & Rigging Training Solutions offers a comprehensive suite of NCCCO certification disciplines, all delivered at your facility or jobsite in Dyersburg. Our programs cover:
- Mobile Crane Operator (CCO) – The most in-demand credential in the industry, required under OSHA 1926 Subpart CC for operators of equipment over 2,000 lbs. lifting capacity.
- Rigger Level I & II – Hands-on rigging training aligned with ASME B30.9 standards, covering sling selection, load weight estimation, hitch configurations, and safe rigging practices.
- Signal Person – Certification for both hand signal and radio signal communication, consistent with OSHA 1926.1419 requirements.
- Lift Director – Training for the individual responsible for planning and directing crane lifts, including critical and complex lift procedures.
- Crane Inspector – Covers ASME B30.5 inspection criteria for mobile cranes, including frequent and periodic inspection protocols.
All written examinations are administered through our status as an NCCCO Accredited Test Site, meaning your team can complete both training and testing without leaving Dyersburg.
Why On-Site Training Outperforms Sending Crews to a Fixed School
The traditional model — pulling workers off the job and sending them to a training center hours away — creates unnecessary cost, scheduling headaches, and lost productivity. On-site training with Holder Crane & Rigging Training Solutions eliminates those barriers.
Train on your own equipment. When operators practice load chart interpretation and crane setup on the same machine they use every day, skills transfer immediately and pass rates improve. There's no adjustment period when they return because there's nowhere to return from.
Reduce downtime. We schedule training around your production calendar. Early mornings, evenings, or phased group rotations — we work your schedule, not the other way around.
Higher pass rates. Our instructors prepare candidates with realistic, scenario-based instruction. Before exam day, candidates work through load chart exam guide exercises and apply ASME B30 principles in real-world contexts, which consistently yields stronger outcomes than classroom-only approaches.
For teams that want to gauge readiness before committing to an exam date, we also recommend our free NCCCO practice exams as part of pre-training assessment.

What to Expect from the Certification Process
NCCCO certification consists of two components: a written (cognitive) exam and a practical (hands-on) exam. Our instructors guide candidates through both. Written prep includes load chart reading, OSHA regulatory knowledge, and crane-specific theory. The practical exam is conducted on actual equipment and evaluated against NCCCO's published performance criteria.
Recertification is required every five years. We handle recertification training and testing on-site as well, so your compliance calendar stays on track without disruption. To understand the full pathway from application to certification, review our NCCCO certification guide or request on-site training to speak with an instructor about your specific workforce needs.
