This one day IPAF training course instructs an operator how to prepare and safely operate a static vertical. It provides both theory and practical training. The IPAF training course aims to allow operators to manoeuvre, drive and position a static vertical platform safely and proficiently.
The majority of IPAF MEWP courses, if passed, will qualify the course delegates for a Powered Access Licence (PAL Card), which is globally recognised and proof that the course delegates have been trained to the highest standard. Their PAL Card lasts for five years. Since June 2021, all UK & Ireland PAL Cards are issued digitally and accessed via ePAL, IPAF’s free mobile phone app. Printed PAL Cards are still available if required at an additional cost.
