The following are questions frequently asked. If you don't find
the answer to your questions here don't hesitate to call.
|
| |
| Can any of
the open enrollment seminars be delivered at my site? |
|
Yes! Scheduled seminars are some of our most popular
courses so it's quite natural that these are also our most
popular on-site programs as well. Let us know the exact
equipment you have and we'll customize a program to meet your
exact needs. |

How does Crane Tech
provide a customized program at an affordable cost? |
|
It is a fact that
customizing a program can drive up the cost of training unless you take
action to reduce the time and manpower required to customize.
That's why Crane Tech developed a proprietary software we call 'Course
Builder' that enables us to select from hundreds of relevant documents
and course designs to meet your exact needs. We add the
description of your course and Course Builder finds all manuals,
workshops, tests, and lesson plans relevant to your subjects. We drag
and drop your relevant materials into your course and the course is
built. Certainly some programs take some added work for specialized
needs, but that's part of our service. We're proud of offering
this service at a cost any company can afford.
|
| |
| |
| Can
courses and subjects be combined for delivery at my company? |
|
Yes. There are many subjects that just go together, and many
companies have multiple types of equipment. We have been combining
and customizing program content since 1977, so just ask us how we can
help.
|
| |
| |
| Why does
Crane Tech proclaim to be the leader with so many companies out
there? |
|
It's simple, Crane Tech puts more resources into developing new training
methods, testing, hands-on skills training programs, and most
importantly, our personnel than any other company. You can learn a
lot about what makes Crane Tech stand out by reading our "Behind The
Scenes" articles. Here you will learn the depth and detail that
goes into making a successful training program. Find the Behind The
Scenes articles on the left panel of any page.

| |
| |
| Do Crane Tech
instructor
have field experience? |
|
One of the most important qualifications our instructor's have is major
hands-on experience. In addition to field experience, we look for
personnel who have worked in management positions, which means they
worked their way up and can relate to the field and management issues.
|
| |
| |
| Are Crane
Tech's tests designed so everyone passes? |
|
No! We use Item Analysis software to keep a close eye on
how each test question performs and to evaluate how well our
students perform on our tests. We certainly don't want our
tests to be too easy, or too hard. There is a medium range
we strive for with every test so that even our brightest
students have to participate in training to score well. We
feel our clients want fair testing that actually records student
achievement. See our Behind the Scenes article titled
Test Development and Item Analysis. |

|
How do I register
for a scheduled training program? |
|
You can register by clicking the "Register For Course" link on
any schedule program page, or by simply calling our Registrar at
1-800-290-0007. There is a quick link to our Registration page
by
Clicking Here. |
| |
| |
| Why does
Crane Tech not charge for testing? Others do... are theirs
that much better? |
|
Crane Tech has never charged any student for testing and never will.
Simply put, we don't understand how a company can charge extra to verify
if their paying clients have learned what they were promised unless
it is just to show a lower training price and then add on the testing
cost. Testing is not an option with Crane Tech, and yes a few
students fail to pass. Our reputation, credibility, and liability
rests with every qualification we provide.
|
| |
| |
| Does Crane
Tech Certify students who attend training? |
|
Except for organizations such as the CCO, there is no such thing as a
"Certified" operator. Certify is a word that is misused and often
misunderstood. Because Crane Tech does not Certify anyone doesn't
mean we don't put all our company credibility, and liability on the
line. However, there are no regulations that use the term
"Certify." OSHA and other Federal standards use the word "Qualify" and
only an employer can "Qualify" a person for a specific job. Crane
Tech provides training and testing to help our clients qualify their
employees using our training and testing methods as assurance of
knowledge and skill.
