Course Description

This course refreshes your knowledge and skills by combining harness use and the selection, installation, use, and disestablishment of height safety equipment to set up fit-for-purpose height safety systems. We also cover ladder risks, scaffolding, man cages, and EWP use while working at heights. The course is mostly scenario-based to ensure the student refreshes on his knots, rope use, and fall arrest devices.

Key Learning Outcomes

  • Support harness use and height safety equipment skills through selection, installation, use, and disestablishment of fit-for-purpose systems.
  • Identify and manage risks related to ladders, scaffolding, man cages, and elevated work platforms (EWPs).
  • Refresh practical techniques, including knots, rope handling, and fall arrest device use in scenario-based training.

Entry Criteria

Students who refresh the unit standards must hold the current unit standards or at least one of the units.

Numeracy and Literacy: To complete the assessments, all students must be able to write, speak, and understand basic English.

You must be at a good level of fitness to complete the course and preferably weigh below 138kg due to the harness weight restriction.
