I teach manufacturing technology and Mechanical Crafts at San Bernardino Valley College. It has fallen upon me to take over an Introduction to Rigging Systems class. This class is a 16-hour not-for-certification class, rather a general information class targeted towards industrial and mechanical maintenance.
Twice this last year a rigging course, offered at another school, that my dept. head and I were scheduled to attend was cancelled.
My questions are:
1.) Any suggestions where I could get training or certification on this subject?
2.) What kind of certification should I be looking for?
The equipment that I have for demonstration includes:
1-ton fixed height gantry crane
Push trolleys
500# 110VAC electric wire rope hoist
500# hand chain hoist
Block & Tackle, pulley hoist
Ratchet hoist
3/8” wire rope sling
3/8” wire rope choker sling
2-leg wire rope bridle sling
4-leg chain bridle slings
Metal mesh sling
Synthetic web sling
Additional related hardware
The books and equipment were originally provided by Amatrol but is no longer supported. The content of the Amatrol curriculum is typically targeted at the high-school level.
Any help in this area would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance,
Joe
