The team at Colorado Crane School run a great 4 week accelerated operator program. The course will teach you every aspect of crane setup and operation. Coming into the course I had very little knowledge of the ins and outs of crane operation, but after only a few short weeks I was prepared not only to take the necessary NCCCO exams but more importantly felt confident that I was capable of operating a crane on the jobsite. The instructors at Colorado Crane school work hard to ensure that every student has the knowledge to operate a crane safely and effectively. I would recommend Colorado Crane School to anyone who wants to start a career working as a crane operator.John P Crowle
My experience with Crane & Rigging Consultants has been nothing but top notch. Crane & Rigging Consultants provides a detailed inspection of Lattice Crawler and Rough Terrain Cranes. If you are looking for a crane inspection to protect you from over charges from excessive wear and tear on a crane, I would recommend you contact Crane & Rigging Consultants. At Mortenson we used multiple inspection companies and Crane & Rigging Consultants provided the detailed inspections that we needed. Our excessive wear and tear costs decreased dramatically once we started using Crane & Rigging Consultants for our inspection needs.Steven Klatt, Mortenson Crane Manager
