IPAF (International Powered Access Federation) training is the recognised standard for anyone operating powered access equipment, including scissor lifts and cherry pickers. These courses are designed to ensure operators understand how to use Mobile Elevated Work Platforms (MEWPs) safely, efficiently, and in line with industry best practice.
IPAF training is suitable for a wide range of industries where working at height is required, including construction, maintenance, warehousing, facilities management, and industrial environments.
IPAF courses focus on practical skills and real-world operation. Delegates learn how to inspect equipment, operate MEWPs safely, understand site hazards, and reduce the risk of accidents when working at height.
Training helps ensure operators are confident, competent, and aware of their responsibilities, supporting safer sites and smoother day-to-day operations.
IPAF certification is widely recognised across the UK and internationally. Holding a valid IPAF licence demonstrates that an operator has been trained to an approved standard and understands safe working practices when using powered access equipment.
This makes IPAF training an essential requirement for many sites and employers, helping to meet health and safety obligations and site access rules.
IPAF training courses can be delivered at accredited training centres or on-site at customer premises, depending on operational needs. This flexibility allows businesses to train individual operators or teams with minimal disruption.
Courses are delivered by experienced instructors and cover a range of MEWP categories, helping ensure the right training is matched to the equipment being used.
Carrying out correct first aid could mean the difference between life and death. Complete Safety Training can deliver first aid courses that apply to your workplace, such as schools, bars and restaurants, sports clubs, warehousing and construction.
