Overview: 

The PAL Card (Powered Access Licence) is recognised worldwide across industries as proof of platform operator training to the highest standard.

It is issued by the International Powered Access Federation (IPAF) to platform operators who successfully complete a training course at an IPAF-approved training centre.

The PAL Card is valid for five years. It shows the date on which the holder was assessed and the expiry date by which re-training would be needed.

It shows the types of equipment that the holder has been trained to operate. In the case of this particular course we are conducting a 3A Scissor lift and 3B Boom type machine training.
It shows the level to which the holder has been trained, e.g. operator, demonstrator and instructor.


These courses are regularly audited by IPAF. Class sizes are kept deliberately small (1:6 instructor/delegate Ratio). Courses generally last one to two days depending on the number of categories being trained and the experience of the trainee and are a mixture of theory and practice, with a written exam and a practical test.
