2A Hoisting License Exam Prep Online Course - Massachusetts [Video Course]

One common misconception is that MA Hoisting Exam Prep courses are approved by the state. This is not true; only continuing education courses require approval. So when you take an exam prep course, you cannot be sure that you are getting a complete curriculum, and believe us, there are many areas to cover.

We are affiliated with Mass Hoisting Training, Inc. and have a strong reputation in the industry for providing the most thorough and comprehensive curriculum. Our instructors have been leading hoisting training classes since 2006 and we consistently have team members taking the Mass. hoisting exam to ensure we're offering up-to-date material and practice tests.

This is your career, and not the time for you to gamble on the cheapest option. You can feel confident that At Leisure's 2A MA Hoisting license prep class covers everything you need to pass the exam on your first try.

When you choose AtLeisureLicense.com, you choose to prepare with confidence:

• Training school-of-choice by thousands of construction professionals
• Leading state exam pass rates
• Expert instructor walking you through everything you need to know
• Updated/current study material
• Nine practice quizzes featuring actual questions that appear on the state exam

Our commitment to you is unparalleled:

• If you don't pass the state exam after completing your Exam Prep course, we'll give you continued access - free of charge - to your course so you can continue to study for your next exam.
• If you don't pass the state exam a second time, we'll refund you the cost associated with your Exam Prep course (excluding any state application/exam fees). Click the link to learn more about our No Pass, No Pay policy.

Obtaining a new Massachusetts hoisting license can feel like a daunting goal. At Leisure strives to make the process as simple as possible, which is why we are the only training provider to offer electronic application submission right on our website, which frees you from the stress and hassle of completing state paperwork.

Simply upload the required documents (like a copy of your driver's license) to your At Leisure dashboard, and we'll take care of the paperwork for you! Not a computer whiz? Not a problem! Our friendly customer support team is standing by seven days a week to assist in whatever way is most helpful to you. For example, if it's easier for you to take a photo of your ID with your smartphone and text it to us, we'll take it from there!

Possibly the best feature of our application submission service is the review process. Every application gets reviewed twice: once by a computer, and once by a real human being, to make sure there are no problems that could delay your licensure process. Common mistakes found on Mass. hoisting license applications include:

• Applicant's driver's license will expire soon
• Applicant's DOT certificate is missing information, like an expiration date or signature
• Documents that are not legible and will get rejected
• Not including a headshot for out-of-state licensees
• and many more

Many applicants who submit paperwork on their own unknowingly include one of these or other issues, which results in their application getting rejected, and therefore causes costly delays in obtaining a hoisting license. With At Leisure, you do not need to worry about your paperwork getting rejected thanks to our thorough review process.

Taking advantage of our electronic application service only costs you a small processing fee of $5.

Individuals looking to obtain a Massachusetts hoisting license are required to hold a current, valid DOT Medical Card. This medical examiner's certificate is issued by an approved provider after the applicant passes a physical exam consisting of a vision test, checking vital signs including blood pressure, ear check, urine test (which is NOT a drug test) and more. 

The cost of obtaining a DOT medical card in Massachusetts typically ranges between $109-$140 or even more. We are proud to be the only MA hoisting training provider to offer discounted DOT medical cards to our customers for just $85.

The 2A Massachusetts Hoisting License exam is a written test comprised of about 40 multiple choice questions; you must score a 70% or better. Exam questions are a combination of regulatory and equipment specific topics. Many questions cover Massachusetts state law, so even the most experienced operators may find the exam challenging without a thorough preparatory course.

To apply for a MA Hoisting Engineering License, you must submit an application to the MA Division of Occupational Licensure (DOPL) Office of Public Safety and Inspections (OPSI) (or, we can do it for you, with our "Electronic application submission" option).

• OPSI will receive and process your application, and schedule you for an upcoming exam. During "normal" processing times, new license applicants typically receive an exam date in the month following when they applied (ex: application submitted in June, exam date provided in July).
• OPSI will mail you (to the address provided on your application) exam details (date/location) about 2 weeks prior to your scheduled exam date.
• You must achieve a 70% or better on a given exam in order to obtain the associated MA Hoisting Engineering license. If you score below a 70%, you must wait 60 days before you are allowed to retake the same exam.

If you've applied for a MA Hoisting License and are curious about your application status, there are a few things you can do:

• Check the Mass.gov License Verification portal and search by first/last name. If your name appears with the designation "pending," it means your application has been processed and you should soon receive details (mail) on your upcoming exam date/location.
• Check with your bank. Has your application check been cashed by the OPSI? If so, they've received and have processed (or are processing) your application.
• As a last resort, call the OPSI to inquire about your status (617.727.3200). Before calling, please remember the process of applying and then sitting for a MA HE license exam typically takes at least a month.

If there is an Emergency involving a OPSI regulated activity, please contact the Massachusetts Emergency Management Agency at (508) 820-1444 to report OPSI related incident.

OPSI related events include (but are not limited to) the following: 

• Building collapse/failure
• Elevators/escalators
• Boiler or air tank failure/explosion
• Amusement or tramway incidents
• Horse carriage incidents
• Incidents involving hoisting and excavating equipment

For all Non-Emergency calls please dial 617-727-3200

The course itself takes roughly 5-6 hours to complete, but we strongly recommend you spend additional time studying the materials beyond that. You can continue to access the course materials as many times as you want up until your exam date.
