I'm Michael Smith, a mechanical engineer with 25+ years of experience in the cranes and lifting industry worldwide. I decided to create the Mastering Offshore Crane Inspection course to transfer the experience I acquired along the years, improving the industry safety and helping people join the industry or change roles.
I've worked offshore in Europe, Oceania, GOM, Brazil, Middle East and West Africa, and this gave me the knowledge required to understand the challenges and limitations each region might have in terms of resources and logistics, and most importantly understand the clients' expectations with regards to crane inspections.
I hope you enjoy and learn a lot from my courses and I help you grow in your career and make money in the offshore industry
