Every two years, your MA hoisting license needs to be renewed, which means every two years, you need to complete your Mass hoisting continuing education requirements. These requirements are in place to ensure you keep up on the latest safety standards for the grades of machinery that you operate on a daily basis, and while they may seem like a burden, they are helping to keep you and the people around you safe.
But we know you are busy. That’s why we have created MA hoisting license continuing education courses that you can complete 100% online, in your spare time, for a nominal fee. We are the first state-approved course in Massachusetts that allows you to get your Mass hoisting continuing education online, and when the course is complete, you can receive the certification instantly so you can renew your Mass hoisting license without delay.
MA Hoisting License Continuing Education Requirements
You know you have to complete continuing education courses every time you renew your license, but do you know how much you have to complete? The Mass hoisting continuing education laws have recently changed: Here’s what you need to know.
- No matter how many restrictions you carry, you have to complete two hours of industry standards and regulatory training.
- Additionally, you have to complete a specific continuing education course for each of the license restrictions you have. After all, you need to know the most up-to-date safety information for each one.
- The length of the grade-specific course does vary based on which license you have. Grades 1A, 1B, 1C, 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D, 3A require two hours each, while grades 1D, 4B, 4C, 4D, 4E, 4F, 4G only require one hour of machine-specific training.
- The continuing education certification of completion should be submitted while your current license is still valid, or you run the risk of losing your license and having to start over.
So, the total length of your continuing education requirements for your MA hoisting license renewal will depend on how many restrictions you have. Everyone has to complete the base two-hour course, and then add on an extra hour or two for each of the grades you are renewing.
Mass Hoisting Continuing Education Course Options
No matter how many restrictions you carry, we have all of the courses you need. Each of our specialized courses includes the core two-hour instruction on industry standards and regulations within it.
