The National Commission for the Certification of Crane Operators (NCCCO) will have its largest presence at any international construction event for 20 years at the 3485 Conexpo 2014 show.

Live equipment demonstrations, nationally accredited certification examinations, education sessions, and practical examiner training will all be conducted by the Virginia-based non-profit organisation.

A once-in-every-three-years equipment exhibition, Conexpo 2014 will feature over 2,400 exhibitors and is expected to draw more than 130,000 attendees. “Conexpo/Con-Agg provides an excellent opportunity for expo attendees to earn or renew their CCO certifications while attending one of the largest events of its kind in the world,” said NCCCO executive director Graham Brent.

Megan Tanel, vice president of exhibitions and events for the 1100 Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM), the organisation that operates Conexpo/Con-Agg, said, “Conexpo/Con-Agg is delighted that the National Commission for the Certification of Crane Operators has elected to schedule its OSHA-recognised and ANSI-accredited crane operator and related certification examinations at the 2014 event. This will provide an exceptional opportunity for crane operators and those who work around cranes to ensure that they are professionally certified to work in compliance with the pending OSHA rules on crane and lifting personnel.”
