The NCCCO Mobile Crane Operator Practical Examinations demonstrate crane operation proficiency and are available in three crane types:

Lattice Boom Cranes (covering both LBC and LBT)
Telescopic Boom Cranes—Swing Cab (TLL)
Telescopic Boom Cranes—Fixed Cab (TSS)

The practical examination is comprised of six main tasks that increase progressively in the skill level tested. Skills tested are: inspecting the equipment, hoisting, booming, swinging, following hand signals, and combination (multifunction) operations. Crane operation with load and without load is required.

A candidate must pass the Written Core and at least one Specialty Examination as well as the corresponding Practical Exam(s) to be CCOcertified for a fiveyear period.
