Sling angle calculations and hitch selection
Load dynamics and lift planning
Fall zone awareness and hazard identification
Proper use of rigging hardware and knots
Communication and signaling protocols

Participants must pass both a written and practical exam to earn certification.

Certification Levels Offered

There are two primary levels of rigger certification:

Rigger Level 1 (Basic): Covers fundamental rigging practices and safety, suitable for those involved in basic rigging operations.
Rigger Level 2 (Advanced): Offers more comprehensive training on complex rigging techniques, ideal for those handling more challenging rigging tasks.

Each level includes all required testing and complies with:

ASME B30.5 and B30.9 standards

Recertification & Validity

Rigger certifications are typically valid for 2–5 years. We provide full support for recertification, including exam prep, scheduling, and compliance tracking. Rigger Level II recertification also renews Level I credentials.

We recommend combining online and in-person sessions to ensure both knowledge and practical rigging skills are fully developed.
