Course Details<\/h2>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]This is a discussion based certification training course that reviews the operation of elevating work platforms including scissor lifts and articulating or telescoping boom lifts. Competent operators must know not only how to operate the particular class of Mobile Elevating Work Platform to which they will be operating, but also be aware of the hazards associated; they must be able to operate the equipment in a manner that protects both their own safety and the safety of others in the workplace. Expect the theory elements of this training session to last about 6 hours, then if the equipment is available, we will conduct operator practical evaluations.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]If you have a group of six or more, we can bring the Mobile Elevating Work Platform Training<\/strong> course directly to your site on a date that works for you. Please contact us<\/strong><\/a> for a quote.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]\n
Equipment Evaluation by Training Location<\/h6>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]As part of your Mobile Elevating Work Platform training, you’ll complete a practical evaluation on specific equipment that varies by training location. Please review the information below to ensure you are aware of what equipment will be available during your practical assessment:[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]Barrie, Ottawa & Waterloo Training Centres:<\/strong> Practical evaluation will be conducted on a Scissor Lift and\/or an Articulating Boom Lift.<\/p>\n

London & Oakville Training Centres:<\/strong> Practical evaluation will be conducted on a Scissor Lift only.[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]Note: The availability of specific equipment may vary based on operational needs. If you require certification on a particular type of lift, please contact our team before booking to ensure the appropriate equipment will be available.<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner disable_element=”yes” column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left” row_position=”default” row_position_tablet=”inherit” row_position_phone=”inherit” overflow=”visible” pointer_events=”all” class=”practical-skills-terms”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” flex_gap_desktop=”10px” column_element_direction_desktop=”default” column_element_spacing=”default” desktop_text_alignment=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_backdrop_filter=”none” column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” overflow=”visible” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” animation_type=”default” bg_image_animation=”none” border_type=”simple” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid”][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]Practical Skills Evaluation<\/span>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=”” text_direction=”default”]Certification of competency requires successful completion of both a written examination and a practical skills assessment. Upon completing the program, participants must pass a final exam with a minimum score of 75%. Up to three attempts are permitted. (this is for each course – not just elearning)<\/p>\n

Candidates must then complete a practical evaluation within 90 days of passing the final exam. The fee for us to complete the practical assessment is $70+tax per person, per piece of equipment. You may also have your employer (or another qualified evaluator) complete this on your behalf. Participants must ensure:<\/p>\n
