Holding a hoisting license in Massachusetts can provide you with a very rewarding career. However, if you want to make sure your license stays up to date, you must stay up on your continuing education requirements. Here is a look at what Mass hoisting license continuing education requirements are necessary every two years, as well as the reasons why At Leisure is the best place to complete your MA Hoisting continuing education online.
Updated Mass Hoisting License Continuing Education Requirements
As you may know, the continuing education requirements to renew your Massachusetts hoisting license were changed back in 2016 with 520 CMR 6.00. Per these new laws, you now only have to complete a maximum of two hours of industry standards and regulations continuing education training, and then at least one or two hours of equipment-specific training.
However, if you carry a license with multiple restrictions, you will have to complete the equipment-specific training for each one. Grades 1A, 1B, 1C, 2A, 2B, 2C, 2D, and 3A require two additional hours, while grades 1D, 4B, 4C, 4D, 4E, 4F, and 4G require one extra hour. So as an example, if have a 2B and 4D license, you will need to complete two hours of the base regulatory training, two hours for the 2B restriction, and one hour for the 4D restriction, for a total of five hours.
