Course Requirements
The content of your PASMA & IPAF Combined 2-Day training course will massively depend on which two courses you decide to complete, both, however, will give you all the skills and knowledge that you need to safely and efficiently operate a Mobile Elevated Work Platform (MEWP) and a Mobile Access Tower.
Having both of these qualifications will show to employers that you are fully trained and compliant with the rules and regulations surrounding working at heights on the specific courses that you opt to complete.
Ongoing Requirements
To keep both certifications valid, training must be recompleted every 5 years as to the guidance of both PASMA & IPAF.
Test Requirements
For both PASMA and IPAF training, you will complete a theory assessment first, consisting of a set of multiple-choice questions. The theory test will show your instructor that you have taken on board the important information and requirements for the equipment you are using.
Then, you will complete a practical assessment, where you must work on a Mobile Elevated Work Platforms (MEWPs) and scaffolding tower.
Further Training
You can also train on additional PASMA & IPAF equipment to add more certifications. Also, if you are looking to upskill in your job role, you could complete PASMA Towers for Managers training, IPAF MEWPs for Manager training, or IPAF Demonstrator Training.
