Through an affiliation with Associated Training Services, the United States Sign Council (USSC) is offering training for riggers and signal persons on crane crews during the 2011 Sign World International tradeshow in Atlantic City. The one-day training includes lectures, written testing and practical testing. Those who complete the training successfully will receive an OSHA-compliant qualification card.

The USSC must receive training requests by October 1, which is also the tradeshow registration deadline. Training is available for members and non-members. Training costs do not include entrance fees to Sign World, but do cover training aids and textbooks.

To sign up for training or for more information, call the USSC office at (215) 785-1922.
