Last year we started our series of short blogs looking at the A to Z of training courses we do, we are up to Crane Lift Supervisor.
Crane Lift Supervisor is the level between Slinger Signaller and an Appointed Person, a role of importance ensuring that the lifting plan is being implemented and adhered to and carried out in a safe manner.
Course ratios – Crane Lift Supervisor
The course durations, training and testing ratios for the NPORS N405 are

Accreditation
Upon successful completion of the course the candidates will received a Kentra Training ID card (credit card size) detailing the course completed.
In addition, we have the option to register the training with our Awarding Body NPORS. www.npors.com If your candidates are working offsite or on other peoples premises a recognised Awarding Body membership maybe advantageous.
