Course Description
This IPAF accredited course is designed for operators of powered access equipment and instructs how to prepare and safely operate Mobile Vertical lifts [(Scissor Lifts)](https://www.starplatforms.co.uk/hire/scissor-lift-hire) and Mobile Booms [(Cherry Pickers)](https://www.starplatforms.co.uk/hire/cherry-picker-hire). Successful delegates receive a PAL (Powered Access Licence), a safety guide, a logbook and a certificate which is accessible via [IPAF ePAL](https://www.ipaf.org/en-gb/resource-library/ipafs-free-epal-app) (a digital app that stores and shares your IPAF powered access licences and qualifications). The ePAL Card is issued by IPAF (the International Powered Access Federation) and is valid for 5 years.
Course Components
- Classroom tutorials: Learn industry best practices and guidelines on health and safety regulations, working at heights, accident control and prevention, and personal protective equipment (PPE).
- Theory assessment: Complete a paper theory assessment prior to the practical assessment.
- Practical training: Gain hands-on experience operating and performing daily maintenance on machines. Learn safe operation, machine selection, MEWP inspection, and PPE best practices.
- Practical Assessment: Delegates will be assessed on their ability to inspect the machine, perform manoeuvres, and identify potential hazards.
Requirements
Delegates should bring the following safety equipment on the day of the practical training:
- Standard PPE (safety boots, hi-vis vest, hard hat).
- HARNESSES: For category 3b training (boom/cherry picker) a harness with short adjustable lanyard is also required. For operator safety, [IPAF](https://www.ipaf.org/en-us/resource-library/fall-protection-mewps-h1) strongly recommends the use of a harness & short adjustable lanyard when operating boom lifts, and most sites will insist on it.
NOTE: Delegates bringing their own harness/lanyard must show a 12 month inspection certificate for this on the day of training, otherwise we cannot allow the use of it during the course.
