CertifiedIn One Weekend.
The full Advanced Rigger course, Friday through Sunday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM. Walk in Friday morning, test out Sunday, and go back to work Monday with the card.
01The Format
Same Course.
Three Days.
The 3-Day Weekend Express is the Advanced Rigger course compressed into one weekend. Nothing is cut: you cover the same lift planning, load math, sling and hardware selection, load control and hand signals, and you test out written and hands-on on Sunday.
It exists for one reason: you can't take four weekdays off. Plenty of students drive in from Corpus Christi, Kingsville and the Valley on Friday morning and are certified by Sunday afternoon.
