The purpose of the course is to provide future crane operators with good theoretical and practical basic training on permanently mounted cranes. The course gives students a good insight into the principles of the crane's construction and operation. After completing the course with a passed theoretical test, this, together with a passed practical driving test, will be the basis for issuing a crane driver's license G20 Fixed crane.

The training covers competence requirements in NORSOK standard R003N for Crane Operator G20.
