The NCCCO Mobile Crane Operator Practical Examinations demonstrate crane operation proficiency and are available in three crane types:

- Lattice Boom Cranes (covering both LBC and LBT)
- Telescopic Boom Cranes—Swing Cab (TLL)
- Telescopic Boom Cranes—Fixed Cab (TSS)

The practical examination is comprised of six main tasks that increase progressively in the skill level tested. Skills tested are: inspecting the equipment, hoisting, booming, swinging, following hand signals, and combination (multifunction) operations. Crane operation with load and without load is required.

A candidate must pass the Written Core and at least one Specialty Examination as well as the corresponding Practical Exam(s) to be CCO-certified for a five-year period.
