Training is in demand and helps improvesafety in the workplace. It is a requirementunder the Health and Safety at Work Act andThe Provision and Use of Work EquipmentRegulations 1998 that employers must ensurethat employees are given adequate training.
IPAF Accredited Training Courses IPAF is the leading powered access
training scheme. The PAL card
(Powered Access Licence) is the most
widely held and recognised proof of
training for platform operators and
more than 50,000 operators are trained
each year.
International Accreditation
The IPAF training programme has been
developed by leading industry
professionals. It conforms to the
international standard ISO 18878:2004
(Mobile Elevating Work Platform Operator
Driver Training) and Europe 89-655-EEC &
95-63-EEC (A7 & A5).
The PAL Card proves that an operator has
been trained to an international standard.
The law requires employees to be properly
trained on the equipment they use at work.
The PAL Card offers proof that employees
have been trained to work at height safely
and has universal recognition which is
accepted by influential organisations around
the world.
About the Courses
Training is always carried out by qualified
IPAF instructors who are also experienced
platform operators.
Courses are a mix of classroom theory and
practical, hands-on instruction. Generally
courses last one or two days covering the
safe and correct use of MEWPS. The
course content includes MEWP safety
awareness, a theory session and test,
MEWP introduction and familiarisation, a
practical test, course evaluation and a
question and answer session.
When training has been successfully
completed, the operator will receive a
safety guide, a log book and their Powered
Access Licence and certificate.
At Warren Access, we also maintain
records of all training undertaken. Shortly
before it is due for renewal, we will contact
you again to see if you would like to renew
the training thus ensuring the candidate’s

IPAF Continued
Driver CPC Accredited Training Driver CPC training is a scheme
designed to develop the skills and
knowledge of PCV and LGV drivers
during their career, and has been
developed around EU directive 2003/59.
It is a legal condition for any professional
drivers of vehicles over 3.5 tonnes
throughout Europe.
Who is affected by this?
Drivers who obtained driving licences
before 1 January 1997, who use C or D
licence categories as part of their job are
now also required by legislation to
undertake CPC Periodic Training to
maintain that entitlement.
The first 35 hours of training should be
completed before the 10th September
2014. Existing drivers will lose the right to
drive if training is not completed by this
date. Drivers are obligated to take blocks of
training which must be a minimum of
7 hours.
About the Courses
The INATIV training suite has been
specially designed to deliver 100% of the
CPC legislative requirements whilst
allowing time to include other best practice
and mandatory training.
Up to two days of bespoke industry specific
training, can be taken as part of the
syllabus without detriment to the minimum
requirements of the legislation.

The Work at Height Regulations 2005,
require that the assembly, dismantling or
alteration of mobile access towers should
only be undertaken by a competent
person, or if being trained, under the
supervision of a competent person.
Such a person is someone considered to
have the appropriate training, technical
knowledge or experience.
PASMA, therefore, sponsors training
courses provided only by authorised
training members.
