Seven trainers with superior subject matter expertise in crane operations and rigging activities will serve as judges for the 2015 Top Trainer award, presented by Crane & Rigging Hot Line and endorsed by the Association of Crane & Rigging Professionals (ACRP).

The Top Trainer program seeks to bring attention to the importance of quality training in reducing crane and rigging accidents in construction and heavy industry. Trainers are recognized for having a positive impact on students, the work environment or the industry through the use of innovative training techniques or hands-on instruction, by encouraging peer or corporate accountability, and/or through quantitative or anecdotal evidence that the training was successful. This year, nominations will be accepted until July 31, 2015; nomination details and forms are available on www.toptraineraward.com.
