This course is aimed at personnel who are required to work at height.

Industry-wide in the UK falls from height continue to be a worrying accident statistic causing around 35 fatalities per year.

Candidates will receive a City & Guilds certificate on successful completion of this course.

This course can be delivered in our Training Academy in Sheffield in a purpose-built training facility ensuring a safe, real-life training environment, or on your site (subject to survey to confirm suitability).
