Certified Signal Person Training

Our Certified Signal Person Training helps you fulfill OSHA requirements for directing a crane. A signal person is required when the point of operation is not in full view of the operator per OSHA 1926.1419(a), or the operator’s view is obstructed in the direction the equipment is traveling. A signal person may also be required when either the operator or the person handling the load determines that a signal person is needed because of site-specific safety concerns.

The Certified Signal Person course is available online and onsite.

We offer group discounts for training multiple employees using our online training course or with onsite training at your location. Call us for a free quote for a Live Onsite or Group Online Signal Person training course for your employees.
