IPAF and PASMA Training Courses in Cardiff

Our Cardiff centre offers MEWP and IPAF training courses and accredited health and safety courses delivered by trainers with multiple years of experience and awards, to teach learners about the safe practices surrounding heavy machinery and powered access equipment.

At our Cardiff centre, we provide courses accredited by The International Powered Access Federation (IPAF). Learners are provided with a Powered Access Licence (PAL card) which is valid for 5 years upon successful completion.

A variety of industries involve the use of powered access equipment, so it is essential operators complete a training course, so they know how to operate machinery in a safe manner. Operators should know how to:

- Conduct pre-use inspections

- Operate safely

- Conduct emergency procedures

At our Cardiff centre, operators will learn these practices through the following courses that we provide:

- Mobile Vertical/Mobile Boom/Static Boom 3A 3B 1B
