Testimonials
After 24 years of working in the field, I had no clue there was a science to it, and I had been rigging wrong.

Corey Jones, KTG USA

The best Rigging training I’ve ever received! Look forward to passing on what I learned to our team. Jim Cox was excellent.

Nathan McBee, Nuclear Services Training Specialist, AREVA

The Journeyman Rigger class was awesome. One of the best classes I have ever attended. Jim Cox was very
knowledgeable. He kept my interest during the whole class. Classroom + Hands-on rigging = great training.

Long Vu, City of San Jose

Having many years of experience in the crane training industry, I have dealt with many of the major training companies.
I can honestly say that Industrial Training International, Inc. in Woodland, WA is without a doubt one of the most
impressive facilities that I have ever seen.

I attended a Journeyman Rigger Program that offered not only classroom time but also a hands-on approach providing
us with the knowledge and skill necessary to properly move loads using slings and other rigging hardware. The program
was presented by an instructor (Jim Cox) who was very knowledgeable and has years of experience in the industry. The
information and experience that I received was invaluable.
