Built by a working crane operator with over a decade in the seat, Southern Colorado Crane Academy exists to teach what actually happens on live jobs — not just how to pass the test.
Training is conducted on a Tadano rough terrain crane, widely regarded for its reliability, smooth operation, and operator comfort. It’s a crane many operators will see throughout their careers — and an ideal platform for learning proper control and technique.
Ground conditions, communication, and risk are built into daily training, not saved for a test or talked about after something goes wrong.
Limited class sizes mean more time under the hook and direct coaching on the details that matter.
