IPAF MEWP Operator Blended Learning Course in Birmingham, West Midlands (Classroom)

IPAF MEWP Operator Blended Learning Course in Birmingham

This course allows delegates to complete the theory part of the IPAF Access Platforms course via an e-learning module. This is completed online, and delegates then attend for a half day to complete practical training. On booking, delegates are issued with a log-in to complete the e-learning module.

Who is the Course For?

Anyone who operates access platforms on site. The e-learning module covers all IPAF MEWP categories, including 1a, 1b, 3a and 3b, and typically takes around three hours to complete depending on your existing knowledge of MEWP operations. If training on additional categories is required, get in touch before booking.

Course Delivery

Blended: the theory module is completed online at your own pace, with progress saved so you can resume at any time. The practical training and assessment take place at the training centre in Birmingham, West Midlands. The e-learning module provides the essential theoretical knowledge but does not replace the mandatory practical training required for full certification.

Course Duration

Around three hours of online e-learning, followed by a minimum of a half-day practical session.
