Who Needs Aerial Lift Training?
Anyone who will operate an aerial lift needs proper training. OSHA standard 1926.453 states that only authorized people should operate an aerial lift, which is defined as any vehicle-mounted device used to elevate personnel. Aerial lifts include boom lifts, aerial ladders, and vertical towers.
ANSI/SAIA A92.22 and A92.24 provide further guidelines for the safe use of mobile elevating work platforms (MEWP) and training requirements including identifying hazards, using fall protection, controls, inspections, and other safety procedures.
You can also access our aerial lift certification course online.

How to Get Aerial Lift Certified with Our Course:
ANSI A92.24 requires that operator training include both theory training, which can happen in a classroom or online, practical hands-on training, and an aerial lift operator evaluation. Training must be given by a qualified person who is experienced with the specific type of MEWP for which an operator needs training and who has knowledge of the laws and best practices.
To certify your operators, follow these steps:
- Purchase our course. USB and DVD will be shipped out the same business day if purchased before 7:00 pm EST. Online training courses allow you to set up a manager and employee dashboard to easily enroll trainees and track training completion.
- Have the operator complete the course and pass the quiz. Employees should review the aerial operator certification training video and accompanying materials, then pass the quiz.
- Give the trainee a practical assessment. Trainees must operate the MEWP safely on site and show proficiency with inspections, planning the route of travel, setting up, operating, and parking and securing the machine.
- Print the certificate of completion. Training and certification must be documented. The certificate of completion proves compliance with the standards.

Aerial lift training usually lasts for three years, though some employers require annual renewal. However, more frequent retraining may be needed if the operator’s performance deteriorates, the operator hasn’t operated a MEWP for an extended period of time, they are using new or different machinery, or they were involved in an accident or near accident. Our USB kit, DVD kit, or online course fulfills theory training requirements, whether operators need a refresher or are brand new to training certification.
All MEWPs require training and certification and operators should be trained on the specific type of lift they are using.
ANSI classifies MEWPs by group and type. Group A are lifts that move vertically, but only within its tipping lines, like manlifts. Group B can move vertically and beyond its tipping lines, like cherry pickers. Within each group there are three types. Type 1 can only be moved in the stowed position. Type 2 can be controlled by the chassis while the platform is elevated. Type 3 can be controlled from the work platform.
