Crane operator training in Kentucky

1 crane operator program with costs, results and funding that can make it free

One school offers this crane operator program, and Kentucky has approved it for workforce funding. It shows its price if you pay yourself and how past students did.

Crane and tower operators lift and move materials, machinery and other heavy loads, usually guided by signals from workers on the ground. Training can take several months, many operators first spend years running other construction equipment or working as riggers and signalers, and some states and cities require a crane operator license.¹ On construction sites, federal rules require employers to make sure each crane operator is certified, by an accredited testing organization, or licensed before running most cranes, and the employer must provide that certification at no cost to the worker.²

In Kentucky, the one program takes students without a high school diploma.
