3D Lift Plan Certification Classes

The Essentials of 3D Lift Plan

Certification Classes

A series of training courses designed to teach you everything you need to know to become proficient with 3D Lift Plan.

3D Lift Plan Certification

Students who successfully pass the certification exam will become certified at the level of training they have successfully completed, allowing them to display certification logos on their lift plans, letterheads, email signatures, etc.  Their name will also be listed on our site.

Recertification Classes

Due to significant feature enhancements since the beginning of our certification program, users are now required to renew their certifications every five years.

Users with certification dates prior to January 1, 2020 need to complete the recertification requirements by December 31, 2025.

This can be done in two ways:

  • Passing the online certification test.
  • Attending and passing tests at recertification classes or a Boot Camp.

The exams have been updated to reflect changes in the 3D Lift Plan training class curriculum. Level 1 and 2 certification tests are now combined into one. The level 3 test will be a new lift scenario which must be sent to 3D Lift Plan support for approval.

    • A web browser with WebGL support.

      Make sure you can view the 3D image on this page.

    • A screen capture program.

      You can use the Snipping Tool that is found in your start menu and the accessories folder, but we recommend Snagit. You can download a free trial version.

    • Current version of Adobe Reader.
      PDF creation program like Adobe PDF or Blue Beam. If you don’t have one you can install CutePDF for free. Be careful not to install all the extra toolbars and things they ask you if you want to install.
