Course Overview

This course has been designed to educate candidates about the potential dangers of working at height and teach them how to work safely by correctly selecting and using the appropriate access equipment.

The majority, if not all, of the fatalities and 40,000 injuries caused by people falling from heights in the workplace each year could have been avoided if people had worked safer. Our online training focuses on instilling this safety knowledge in candidates in order to help them avoid accidents by following their training lessons.

Individuals engaged in jobs that involve working at heights need the proper knowledge, tools, and skills to ensure their safety. This course provides an invaluable resource for such individuals, equipping them with the knowledge to confidently and safely assess work-at-height operations.
