This part of ISO 9926 specifies the minimum training to be given to trainee drivers of cranes, to develop basic operational skills and to impart the requisite knowledge for the proper use of those skills. It defines the overall training scheme within which specific training should be given for each type of crane (for example tower cranes, mobile cranes, etc.). It assumes that the trainees have no previous practical experience in driving cranes. It does not specify any procedure for evaluating their capabilities or qualifications.
