Utah Training Options
Detailed assessments to ensure crane safety and operational excellence
On-Site Training
On‑site training is designed for companies that have the facilities and equipment available at their own location and prefer to keep their employees onsite for logistical or operational reasons. All on‑site training requires the company to provide the crane or equipment that will be used during the training and evaluations.
Off-Site Training
Off‑site training is intended for customers who do not have the facilities or space to conduct training at their own location. Paradise Crane Consultants will arrange a suitable rented facility; however, the company must still provide the crane or equipment needed for the training and evaluations.

FAQs
Common questions about crane training and certification in Utah.
Yes. Paradise Crane delivers on-site training across Utah. We coordinate scheduling and logistics to fit your crew's location and availability.
That's our standard approach. We bring classroom and hands-on instruction to your jobsite, yard, or facility to minimize downtime and travel.
OSHA requires anyone operating a crane in construction to hold a certification from an ANAB‑accredited certification body. OSHA defines a crane as any powered equipment capable of hoisting, lowering, and horizontally moving a suspended load.
Certain equipment types and work activities are exempt from this requirement. For a full list of exemptions, refer to OSHA1926.1400 – Scope.
For general industry operations—such as manufacturing—OSHA does not require accredited certification. In these environments, an OSHA‑compliant qualification is sufficient as long as the operator receives proper training and demonstrates competency.
Paradise Crane recommends scheduling four to six weeks in advance. This allows time to coordinate travel, prepare materials, and align with your crew’s availability. Paradise Crane can in some cases accommodate classes booked as late as 7 days in advance, as long as our teaching schedule allows.
We provide certification preparation for NCCER and support training for crane operators, riggers, signalpersons, and lift directors. Paradise Crane also offers OSHA qualification classes, specialized safety training, including fall protection and confined space training.
