Accredit your workers with our hoist and jib training. For years, lifting devices have been framed by legislation to prevent accidents among workers.

To meet employer obligations and protect your workers, offer this unique theoretical and practical training.

During this course, our instructors will teach your operators and supervisors to identify dangers and risks, the safe use of these devices, maintenance methods, types of devices and their specifics, as well as mandatory checks such as maximum safe use load. They will also learn the importance of prevention, the maximum capacity of overhead traveling cranes, the ideal conditions, the types of accidents and the laws in force.
