Our Story

From a pioneering training program to a comprehensive safety partner.

Founded in 1978, Crane Tech began as a crane and rigging training company focused on practical, field-based instruction that supported safer operations and regulatory compliance. That same year, we delivered the nation’s first commercially available crane and rigging training program setting an early standard for hands-on, experience-driven education.

As client needs and regulatory expectations evolved, Crane Tech expanded beyond training to include inspections and consulting services. This growth allowed us to support organizations more holistically helping them train personnel, evaluate equipment, and strengthen safety practices across their operations. 

Today, Crane Tech serves construction, industrial, maritime, and energy operations nationwide. Our work remains grounded in experience, consistency, and a long-standing commitment to safety through education.

Our Instructors

Every Crane Tech instructor has extensive field experience so they relate to real issues with real solutions. Our decades of experience span industries from construction and manufacturing to utilities, maritime, government, and more.

Just as importantly, all have served in supervisory and leadership roles, giving them a deep understanding of both the importance of safety and how to communicate it effectively to your personnel.

A rigorous vetting and development process ensures every instructor and every program they deliver meets Crane Tech’s high standards. Ongoing professional development keeps their expertise current and their teaching effective, so clients can count on consistent, professional training every time.

What Sets Our Instructors Apart

Above all, our instructors create a learning environment that is professional yet approachable—where questions are encouraged, complex ideas are made clear, and students leave more confident in their skills.

Our Values

Safety through Education isn’t just our tagline—it’s how we operate.

Our work is guided by core values that shape how we train, inspect, consult, and support our clients.

 Safety

Material handling operations can be dangerous, and every worker deserves to go home at the end of the day. Our training reflects this responsibility.

Integrity

We do what’s right, not what’s easy, even when no one is watching.

Commitment

Our responsibility doesn’t end when training does. We stand behind those whom we teach and the clients we serve.

Teamwork

We succeed by working together—with clients, with crews, and one another.
