Training Requirements

 

ATTITUDE

In order to ensure a safe work environment, candidates must have an appropriate attitude alongside fitness and physical capabilities. Rope access work is often remote and far from outside help, meaning a respect for heights and responsible behaviour is required to prevent any incidents. 

THEORY

Candidates applying for a re-register or upgrade course should be competent in all practical as well as theoretical requirements for their current level and should be capable of performing all techniques and answering questions at that level. Those deemed not competent to their existing level may require additional training.

​WORK EXPERIENCE

Candidates looking to take an upgrade need to ensure that their certificate is valid on the day of assessment and that they also have at least one years’ experience alongside 1000 working hours signed off correctly in their logbook.

Technicians should present their logbook to the TMC at the beginning of the course for re-validations or upgrades. Lost logbooks can be replaced here.
