Course Outline
The Bridge & Gantry course is designed for operators who use equipment to sling, lift, move & lower equipment within a workshop setting.
The Bridge & Gantry competencies consist of:
- Plan and prepare for lifting operations
- Prepare loads to lift in accordance with gantry crane limitations & rigging requirements

- Confirm work area hazards & remove or control prior to commencing the lift

Face to face classroom delivery will be used to facilitate the underpinning knowledge requirements with practical hands on use of the equipment in a simulated environment.
Each course is contextualised in conjunction with the client using client equipment, operating environment, procedures and processes.
Assessment
Both theory and practical assessments will be conducted throughout the course.
Students who require extra time will be given a logbook to log lifting events under the supervision of a licensed Dogger or Rigger until they feel ready for assessment.
On successful completion participants receive an electronic Nationally Recognised Statement of Attainment.
