Our PASMA “Towers For Users” training is split into two sessions over the course of a full day. The morning session takes place in the classroom and covers the theory portion of the course, ending with a written test. The afternoon takes the form of a practical session, where you will get hands-on experience of assembling and dismantling a mobile tower. (Minimum Age requirement: 16 years). Up to ten operatives can be booked on this course.
Please note that the course will be in written and verbal English. A translator can attend the course to assist your operatives but they can only translate, they cannot be a candidate on the course itself. Please let us know in advance if a translator will be attending.
