Morrow Training Center Expansion Completed
 |
| Morrow Traning Center | March 4, 2010 — The year 2009 saw a major expansion of the Morrow Training Center. Located on the Morrow Equipment International Headquarters campus in Salem, Oregon, the training facility has been expanded to nearly 10,000 sq. ft., and several new or enhanced training programs have been added. Included are new classrooms, component labs, a multipurpose conference room, office space, and a reception area. A large outdoor concrete pad designated for testing and safety programs has been added as well. For more than 20 years, Morrow has been directly involved in offering equipment operators, service technicians, safety personnel, and site management staff a variety of comprehensive technical training programs.
The company also offers specific courses for regulatory agency personnel and equipment inspectors. Courses include lecture, discussion, and audiovisual instruction formats with hands-on equipment training.
The training center classrooms and labs are equipped with real tower crane and construction hoist drive and control systems. These training aids, including electrical panels, drive motors and transmissions, enable our staff to demonstrate the level of performance, ease of maintenance, and built-in safety features found in modern all-electric tower cranes and construction hoists.
Courses include, but are not limited to Tower Crane Operator I and II; NCCCO Tower Crane Operator Certification; Tower Crane Service I and II; and Tower Crane Technician, Management, and Safety and Inspection. New courses include NCCCO Rigger Certification Exams, and Signal Person Certification Exams; and exam preparation courses for riggers and signal persons; as well as Construction Hoist Service and Safety and Inspection; and Safety Training Programs (OSHA 10- and 30-Hour).
