FAQs – Truck Mounted Crane Training Course
Do I need a licence to operate a truck-mounted crane in the UK?
Yes – most employers will expect you to hold a valid CPCS card. Completing this course earns you the CPCS certification that proves you’ve been properly trained to operate a lorry-mounted crane safely and professionally.
I’ve never used a crane before – can I still join?
Absolutely. The course is built to suit people from all backgrounds. Whether you’ve just left another trade or you’re totally new to the site, we’ll teach you everything from the ground up.
Where does the training happen?
We run courses at a number of accredited training centres across the UK, including locations in the Midlands, Greater London, and the North West. Each one’s fully equipped with real truck-mounted cranes, not simulators.
How long does the training take?
It’s a five-day course. During that time, you’ll get a proper mix of classroom learning and hands-on crane operation. Most of our learners are surprised by how much they pick up in just one week.
What’s included in the course price?
We keep it simple. Your fee covers everything – training sessions, materials, access to the crane, your CPCS test, and the certificate if you pass. No hidden add-ons later.
Will I be able to find work after this course?
Plenty of our trainees go on to secure crane jobs quite quickly, especially in cities like Manchester, Birmingham and Leeds. Lorry-mounted cranes are widely used in logistics, construction, and event setup – there’s regular demand if you’ve got the right ticket.
What’s the difference between a mobile crane and a truck-mounted crane?
A mobile crane usually sits on a separate chassis designed purely for lifting, while a truck-mounted crane is fitted to a lorry that can carry loads as well as lift them. Both need different training – this course focuses on the truck-mounted type.
I’ve worked with cranes before. Do I still need this course?
If you want to get your CPCS card or switch from in-house training to a recognised national certification, then yes – this course ticks that box. It’s also good for brushing up on load charts, new safety regs, and best practices.
Is this course recognised outside the UK?
Yes, the CPCS card is also respected in many parts of the EU. It’s a solid step if you’re looking at international site work in the future.
How do I sign up?
Easy – give us a call, drop us an email, or book through our website. We’ll help you find the closest date and centre that suits your schedule.
