Question:

can anyone give me some info on how to become a crane operator?

im 35 and in august i get my license back and i am going after my childhood dream of being a crane operator and was wondering how i need to go about achieving this?

Answer:

I agree. There are schools (USA) that teach this kind of thing. You attend, receive a diploma attesting to your success then you can approach prospective employers that hire people with these skills. I wish you the best. :)
I am sorry I do not know where are you from as different country might have different requirement on getting a Crane Operator licence. Anyway, I believe the basic is the same: You need to attend a theory class on crane operations which usually include topics like design theory of cranes, slinging and lifting, signalling. After this, there will be a practical session to test your understanding and practical operations on an actual crane in the training center's facility. Good Luck and May You Attain You Dream :)
