Half a day per class, accredited certificate

Each aerial work platform class takes half a day (approximately 4 hours). Want to combine several classes in a single day? You can — just one extra hour per additional class. All three classes (1B, 3A and 3B) therefore fit into a single day of approximately 6 hours.

We start with a theory session on the specific class, followed by extensive practical training on your own equipment. The day concludes with a theory exam and a practical assessment.

What will you learn?

  • Working safely at height with fall protection
  • Daily safety check and inspection
  • Driving, manoeuvring and elevating on the work floor
  • Risks and hazards when using aerial work platforms
  • Dealing with emergencies and lowering down safely
  • Legislation around working at height

What does the day look like?

Theory block per class → practical training → theory exam → practical assessment. You receive an accredited certificate for each class completed. Every participant receives course material in advance to prepare.
