Objective

• This course is designed for delegates to complete these two essential courses in 4-days instead of 5 days.

• The course encompasses the same theoretical and practical content but removes all elements of duplication, i.e. Lifting Operations Regulations, Planning, Risk Assessment, etc.

Target Group

The course is aimed at personnel who are involved in rigging and crane operations at all levels

Prerequisites

None required

Examination

Delegates will be assessed against the Learning Outcomes specified in the Content Section using direct observation and oral and/or written questions as appropriate. Delegates will be required to undertake a written test at the beginning and end of course. The pass mark for this course is 80%.

Should a delegate encounter challenges to meet these Learning Outcomes, RON shall provide additional coaching as an opportunity to meet those requirements.

Delegate will also receive a NSL/RON Rigging and Lifting Logbook, this is a record of lifting operations that the delegate participates in whilst at the worksite. This logbook represents experience in Lifting Operations for the delegate as well as their company. It is recommended that it is maintained as part of the delegate’s personal development records.
