Instructor Course Details

Program Length

The duration Certified Instructor depends on the Program. We start with going through the respective end-user course as a student with the purpose to ensure a baseline of knowledge and to experience the course delivery as it is designed. The following days are focused on learning how to setup for and deliver the program, knowledge development, and the assessment of participants as Instructors.

Eligibility

Anyone can attend the Certified Instructor Trainer Program. This is an intensive program and moves at a fast pace with a focus to prepare participants to deliver the material. Each participant must have prior knowledge and experience with working at heights and general occupational health and safety.

The program covers technical aspects of Technical Access and Rescue, summary instructional techniques, and the delivery of the established standards and technical content of the respective course.

Participants should expect some home studies during the course in the evenings to ensure they can meet the minimum standard during the assessment phase of the course.
