Aerial Lifts Trainer Certification
Our Aerial Lifts Trainer Certification Program is designed to certify instructors who wish to qualify operators on boomlifts and scissor lifts. Trainees will receive in-depth instruction on aerial lift equipment as well as extensive instruction on how to effectively train operators. Our Train the Trainer programs aren’t make or model specific, our training covers concepts common to all types of aerial lifts including JLG, Genie and Skyjack.Each trainee’s knowledge and demonstrated skills in all aspects of the program are evaluated and graded prior to certification.
It is well known that forklift training has been and will continue to be a focus for regulatory authorities such as OSHA, but did you also know that the forklift training requirements laid out by OSHA provide an excellent template for training on other pieces of equipment like aerial equipment?
