You can receive full credit for NCCER’s Core curriculum plus an additional 24 modules* in the following craft* areas: Heavy Equipment Operations, Concrete Finishing, Sustainable Construction and Safety Technology. In the chart below, an X next to a module indicates you are eligible to receive credit for that module.

If an X does not appear next to a module then additional training is required for the craft level* completion. Each module builds upon one another to accomplish a level completion and this information is tracked in NCCER’s Registry System. An industry- recognized credential* is awarded with level completions and each craft usually has three to four levels.
