What type of Certificate does Mobile Equipment Training Inc. issue?

After successful completion of any training course we issue either wall frame type certificates, wallet sized identification cards or both. The wallet cards generally include a color picture of the candidate unless specified otherwise. Each candidate must provide current legal valid Identification (i.e. Drivers License, Passport, etc.) All information regarding the status of the certificate holder can be obtained and verified by calling the numbers listed on the back of the card. All of our programs include legally defensible criterion-referenced examinations and performance evaluations. Any other certificates such as CCO or State and Local Licenses must be obtained from the licensing bureau or agency where those licenses are issued.

Can I train my own employees rather than using a Nationwide Training Company like Mobile Equipment Training Inc.?

Yes, in most cases this is allowed, however the laws are changing rapidly in light of some of the high profile accidents and mortality that has been in the news lately. OSHA just published a new rule for construction effective November 8, 2010. In the case of accidents very often OSHA or MSHA investigations result in very expensive fines and citations due to what was determined to be “inadequate” training. That’s why we set a very high standard to ensure all our programs are legally defensible and as effective as possible.
