Aerial work platforms are becoming more popular as they offer a safer way to work at heights. Operating these devices safely requires knowledge, skill, and a serious commitment to safety.

Our course is designed to provide operators with the knowledge and skill to be able to operate the equipment safely and efficiently. Additionally, it includes a full module on the use of fall protection equipment in connection with the use of aerial work platforms.
