What is the difference between training and an NCCER assessment?

Does Rig Right Texas train entire employee crews?

Yes. Rig Right Texas works with employers on group safety training, rigging training, NCCER assessments, practical exams and workforce training plans built around the crew and project deadline.

Are NCCER assessments available in Spanish?

English and Spanish assessment options are available for many NCCER crafts. Call 361-600-8957 to confirm the craft, language and appointment time.

Where is Rig Right Texas located?

Rig Right Texas has locations in Portland and Hubbard, Texas. The Portland location serves Corpus Christi and the Coastal Bend.
