On-Site Aerial Lift Training
If you have a group of employees who operate aerial lifts, we bring OSHA-compliant training directly to your facility. Our on-site training program for operators of various types of aerial lifts including boom-lifts, scissor lifts, bucket trucks, and other types of Mobile Equipment Work Platforms (MEWPs) provides practical, hands-on instruction using your equipment and your actual work environment.
Training employees on-site improves operator confidence, reinforces safe operating practices, and helps employers meet OSHA requirements for aerial lift operators.

The Advantages of Aerial Lift Operator Training
On-site aerial lift training offers significant advantages over off-site or generic training programs. Employees train on the same aerial lifts they use every day, helping them become more comfortable and proficient with the equipment.
Training takes place in your real work environment, allowing instruction to address actual workplace hazards, operating surfaces, overhead obstructions, traffic patterns, and job site conditions. You reduce downtime and eliminate travel expenses associated with sending employees off-site for training.
Group training is also a cost-effective solution for employers who need to train multiple operators at one time. Most importantly, on-site aerial lift training provides practical experience that improves safety, productivity, and compliance.
Types of Aerial Lifts We Train On
We provide operator training and evaluations for many types of aerial lifts and mobile elevated work platforms (MEWPs), including:
- Straight boom lifts (telescopic boom lifts)
- Articulating boom lifts (“knuckle booms”)
- Scissor lifts
- Bucket trucks
- Vertical mast lifts
If your company uses specialized aerial lift equipment, we can tailor the training to match your specific fleet and work activities.
