Is there a minimum age requirement for completing Overhead Crane operator training?
With the exception of Lift Truck operators, there is no minimum age outlined in any UK legislation for plant operators.
Lift Truck operators in the UK must be over the minimum school leaving age (except in docks where they must be at least 18 years old).
You can find out more here: HSE Workplace Transport FAQ
Is there an upper age limit for completing Overhead Crane operator training?
No.
Do I receive an Overhead Crane licence when I complete this training?
There is no such thing as a licence as such, for any piece of plant machinery in the UK.
The term ‘licence’ suggests a document issued from a governmental or other constituted authority to operate an Overhead Crane. No such authority exists; there are only accrediting bodies and training providers who operate independently of the HSE or any other government organisation.
Successful candidates do receive a certificate and photo ID card, sometimes referred to as an Overhead Crane ticket; this provides evidence that the candidate has completed training and is certified to use the equipment as outlined on the Overhead Crane certification.
Overhead Crane courses are available across the majority of makes, models, types of machinery and attachments including but not limited to the following.
NOTE: If you do not see the equipment for which you require training this does not mean that our trainers / assessors are not qualified to deliver the crane training you need.

We hired Ray Fearon from DIDAC woodworking academy to come to our Men’s Shed to teach us safety in our workshop. He was an excellent instructor. Thorough, knowledgeable, approachable and a person one could approach to ask any question. We learnt a lot from him and going forward we are passing that information to our members.
