Hoist Operator

Hoist Operator

This course is designed as blended learning: a combination of online learning and practical training. It is specifically designed for mobile crane operators, as well as truck-mounted cranes with lifting functions, earthmoving machines with lifting functions, and telehandlers with lifting functions. During this training for future crane operators, the key test terms are covered through theoretical and practical instruction.

Depending on the operator's knowledge and experience, this training is divided into two options: one consisting of theoretical knowledge acquisition through blended learning (e-learning), and one consisting of practical instruction to prepare for the practical exam.

The course is suitable for future crane operators with experience or holders of a TCVT certificate who have not completed the mandatory TCVT refresher training modules in time and
this means that you will have to take a theory exam again.
