Who We AreWe serve a variety of industries, wherever heavy loads are moved.



IntroductionThe Fundamentals of Rigging Engineering is a comprehensive training program that introduces participants to the science and art of the engineering behind heavy crane and rigging, lifting, and transport activities.

These activities take place in a variety of industrial environments. Engineers come on the scene with backgrounds in mechanical, civil, structural or other branches of engineering. However, in most engineering degree programs, students learn little to nothing about crane and rigging activities. Most engineers who enter this field are then required to learn on-the-job.

Another group of potential participants include a multitude of non-engineers who have graduated through the ranks to take on the roles of lift planner, equipment superintendent, or master rigger. In general, these individuals have learned a great deal on-the-job but lack the formal education that the risky activities they are conducting call for.

Purpose and ScopeThis program was built to prepare key personnel with foundational knowledge in rigging engineering, exposing students to what they need to consider, and provide them with the resources to solve a challenge when it arises.

Program Format and Delivery MethodsFundamentals of Rigging Engineering is comprised of five required courses and five electives; two electives are required to complete the program. Each course is comprised of three to six modules, with students moving through the following program requirement tasks within each module: •ReadingandMediaViewing •LectureVideosandPresentationReview •DiscussionQuestions •AssignmentsandWorkshops •Exams

Online & On-DemandStudentsareabletocompletetheentireProgramonlineandattheirownspeed–lecturesarerecorded by subject matter experts. The five required courses and two of the available elective courses are available online.

Hands-on at ITI Training CentersTo enhance the learning experience with hands-on training, participants are offered three elective course options at ITI Training Centers. If a participant has completed one of the ITI Training Center Course options in the past three years, that credit can be carried over to the Fundamentals of Rigging Engineering Program.
