Lift & Move USA to Attend SkillsUSA Annual Conference

The Lift & Move USA program will promote careers in the crane, rigging and specialized transport industry to thousands of students and teachers at SkillsUSA’s annual conference in Louisville, Kentucky on June 19-23.

An estimated 7,000 students and 5,000 teachers will attend the organization’s annual National Leadership and Skills Conference in Louisville, providing an ideal opportunity for Lift & Move USA to promote the industry and its program of events. SkillsUSA is the national body that prepares school and college students for careers in trade and technical jobs.

Lift & Move USA will have a booth at the Skills Conference supported by Edwards Moving & Rigging and the IUOE union. Edwards will provide an SPMT plus operators, while IUOE will display a small Grove yard crane and a crane simulator.

Lift & Move USA is a joint initiative of the Specialized Carriers & Rigging Association, publisher KHL Group, the National Commission for the Certification of Crane Operators and the Specialized Carriers & Rigging Foundation.

The program was started in 2015 and has now held six careers promotion events, hosted by SC&RA members in Chicago, Illinois; Tampa, Florida; Long Beach, California; Houston, Texas and Graham, North Carolina. More than 2,700 students have attended the events.
