Crane Operator Certification & Training for Employers

Train Your Team for CCO Certification with Confidence

At National Safety Partners, we help employers ensure their teams are trained, tested, and certified in line with national standards. Our Crane Operator Certification and Training Program is built specifically for organizations that need reliable, compliant, and safety-focused crane operators. Whether you’re managing a construction site, industrial facility, or logistics yard, properly certified operators reduce liability, increase jobsite safety, and boost operational efficiency.

We offer end-to-end training and testing solutions to certify individuals as licensed NCCCO crane operators. Our goal is to make certification straightforward for employers while helping your employees meet every requirement for CCO certification, a nationally recognized and internationally accredited credential.

A Smarter Way to Certify

We offer comprehensive training and exam prep for both the Written and Practical portions of the CCO certification. Training is available onsite or offsite, and we help coordinate testing logistics, whether through online proctoring, testing centers, or group events. From initial training to final certification, we handle the heavy lifting so your team is ready, compliant, and confident.

Key Benefits for Employers:

  • Centralized scheduling and program tracking
  • Customized training plans based on your team’s needs
  • Support for bulk registrations and multiple locations
  • Guidance for recertification and compliance timelines
