“John Wickson conducted an in plant Overhead Crane Train-the-Trainer Program in our Oshawa Metals Centre.
We found John to be very knowledgeable with the practical operations and regulations related to overhead
cranes.”
“As part of the training, John had to assess trainer knowledge and teaching skills as they
delivered courses from the classroom. He monitored their expertise and knowledge as they conducted
hands-on training and evaluation in the plant using a number of different overhead cranes and loads.
He also assessed how they conducted training and performance evaluations on the plant floor. Our
plant is very pleased with the services provided by John.”

“I wanted to take this opportunity to thank you for your assistance in working with Redpath Sugar and providing our employees with both theory and practical overhead crane operator safety training. Your services provided us with compliant crane safety training for the overhead crane operators at our manufacturing facility. It was a pleasure working with you, especially because of your reliability and your flexibility with our scheduling needs.”
“Having our crane operators trained has made significant improvement for our operations department in managing our work, increasing our efficiencies and reducing our operating costs. Your company has enabled me to ensure that our employees have the training that they need to do their job correctly and safely; and in turn it has given our employees the knowledge and confidence to develop into better crane operators in the field.”

“While employed as Plant Manager of Trim Trends Canada, John Wickson
was contracted to train our employees on the safe use of overhead
cranes and associated rigging and lifting assists. I was impressed
with the practical training where all students participated.
Comprehension level amongst the employees was very high and the
written material complete and easy to understand.”
“We were very happy with John’s performance, professionalism, and
willingness to work around our tight automotive industry schedules.
We found the level of training to be of very good economic value as
well as something sound for the employees rather than just the
"due diligence" training offered by some other trainers.”

“John Wickson is an exceptional facilitator,
and professional when it comes to conducting training courses.
It is clearly obvious that John is passionate about teaching
training courses and is committed in helping everyone in his
course to feel comfortable and confident when covering the
theoretical and practical components of the course. Safety
is a subject area that John takes seriously and he explains the
importance of being safe and thorough when operating overhead
cranes and lifting attachments.”
“I recommend John and his courses to anyone who has cranes and
hoists and who is looking for the best value for their investment,
yet requires an instructor who is considered an expert in his field.”

“Mr. John Wickson was hired by Trim Trends Canada Inc. on numerous
occasions in past years to train our employees in the safe and
efficient use of our lifting equipment. He trained our employees
in the safe use of overhead cranes, rigging and lifting assists.
We have both a 30 ton crane as well as several small cranes.”
“Mr. Wickson’s method of training required a day and one-half of class
instruction and a half-day of hands on training in our facility.
John handled the training in the least disruptive, efficient manner,
which allowed us to continue in our day-to-day operation of the plant.
We were extremely happy with his professionalism and performance and I
would highly recommend John to any company looking for
"Quality Training" for their employees.”
