Mobile Elevated Work Platform (MEWP)

A Mobile Elevated Work Platform (MEWP) is a type of aerial lift equipment that is designed to provide a safe and efficient way to access elevated work areas. MEWPs are commonly used in various industries where working at height is required. These are commonly called a Scissor Lift.

At our RTITB accredited training centre, we offer comprehensive MEWP training courses for experienced and novice operators that cover all types of MEWPs. Our courses are designed to equip operators with the necessary skills and knowledge to operate MEWPs safely and efficiently.

Our experienced instructors will guide you through every aspect of MEWP operation, ensuring that you are competent and confident in using the equipment to an industry standard. 

Upon successful completion of our MEWP training course, operators will receive an RTITB certificate that is recognised by UK employers.
