Mobile Elevated Work Platform Course

The Mobile Elevated Work Platform training course is designed for workers that operate scissor lifts or articulating booms and other man lifting devices at an industrial establishment or construction site. According to MOL and OHSA standards, any worker using these types of lifting devices must have the training, knowledge and experience to operate any lifting devices they will use on a regular basis.

Labour standards also mandate that workplace supervisors must be trained and competent enough to oversee their workers’ use of these devices.
