A real student outcome

Training can change which opportunities you are ready to take.

One former student told us he moved from ironwork at $28 an hour to rigging work at $42 an hour after completing his training. His result is not a promise of pay—but it shows what can happen when experience and the right preparation meet the right opening.

$28 → $42/hr

Reported by a former student after moving from ironwork into a rigger role. Individual results vary by experience, employer and job market.

Questions before you sign up?

Which class should I take?

Choose Basic Rigger if you need the foundation. Choose Advanced Rigger if you already have rigging experience and need higher-level lift planning, calculations and practical preparation. Call us if you want help choosing.

Does the class automatically give me an NCCER credential?

No. The class prepares you. You earn the credential by meeting the applicable NCCER written and hands-on assessment requirements.

Can I test without taking a class?

Experienced workers may schedule an assessment without taking the full class. If you do not pass part of the test, we can build focused prescription training around the areas you need.

Do you offer payment options?

Payment options may be available. Talk with a student advisor before your class begins.

Be ready before the opportunity shows up.

Pick your level and put a date on the next step. Your deposit applies toward tuition.
