Stage rigging and industrial rigging both involve suspended loads, but they are different kinds of work. Stage riggers work around entertainment equipment, lighting, truss and live events. Industrial riggers work around cranes, heavy materials, construction sites, refineries and plants. The training or credential for one path may not meet the requirements of the other.
If your goal is refinery, plant or construction work, look for industrial rigging training that matches the employer’s requirements. Rig Right Texas offers NCCER Basic Rigger and NCCER Advanced Rigger training in Portland, Texas.
