CCO is preparing to release new certifications for operators of rotating and fixed telehandlers. As the Telehandler Task Force puts the final touches on the written and practical exams that will be required for CCO certification, CCO sat down with the Task Force chair Tony Dotto to discuss why and how this new certification was developed.

Graham Brent—CEO of the NCCCO Foundation and former CEO of CCO—retired, effective July 29, 2022.

CCO is excited to announce that as part of its technology initiative to improve efficiencies, those who administer practical exams will record candidate performance via a tablet rather than on a paper score sheet.

CCO wants candidates and certificants to know that they are more than just a certification number. CCO understands that behind each program participant is a hard-working, safety-minded professional who cares deeply about the work they do.

CCO is excited to announce its technology initiative to move all written exams to the computer.

The CCO Board of Directors has announced the industry leaders who will serve during 2022–2023.

Kerry Hulse, who served CCO for 25 years, first as Chair of the Commission and then as a member of the Board of Directors, will step down from the Board on June 30, 2022, as his term has been completed.

Candidates may now apply and take the exam for the new CCO Concrete Pump Operator certification.
