Upcoming start dates
Suitability - Who should attend?
This course is vital for anyone responsible for the assembly, dismantling, alteration, moving and inspection of mobile access towers when using 3T or Advance Guardrail (AGR) systems.
REQUIREMENTS
Since the safe use of mobile access towers requires that delegates read and thoroughly understand safety notices and manufacturer’s instruction manuals, literacy and language comprehension are important requirements for any tower user.
Similarly, since the assembly and use of mobile access towers can be physically demanding, users should be physically fit and in good health and should, generally, not have problems with eyesight or hearing, heart disease, high blood pressure, epilepsy, fear of heights / vertigo, giddiness / difficulty with balance, impaired limb function, alcohol or drug dependence or psychiatric illness.
Outcome / Qualification etc.
A PASMA Certificate and PhotoCard will be issued to successful delegates who complete the Theory and Assessment sessions at the level they attend the course which has a five-year validity period.
