PASMA – Mobile Access Towers for Users course FAQs
Q. What is the PASMA – Mobile Access Towers for Users course, and who is it for?
Q. How do I know if I need PASMA or a different type of work at height course (such as IPAF or Ladder Training)?
The right course depends on the type of access equipment you'll be using and the nature of the work.
- PASMA training is for those working with mobile access towers, often used for medium duration tasks where a stable platform is needed, such as electrical installations, HVAC work, inspections, painting or other interior installation work.
- IPAF training covers powered access equipment such as scissor lifts and boom lifts. These mobile elevated work platforms (MEWPs) are typically used for short to medium duration tasks that require frequent repositioning or access to varying height levels, ideal for work such as signage installation, high-level cleaning, or warehouse maintenance.
- Ladder training is best for short duration, low-risk tasks (typically under 30 minutes) where ladders are still appropriate, such as visual inspections, light maintenance, or changing bulbs.
We also offer an extensive range of specialist Work at Height training, including rooftop safety, rope access, harness awareness, and rescue training.
