Combined

Low-Level Access

& Towers for Users

Two qualifications in one day

Duration: 1 day

Practical: Yes

Standards: EN 1004, BS 8620

If you work with mobile access towers and low level access equipment, you can do both courses at the same time. Ask your training centre for the PASMA Combined Low-Level Access and Towers for Users course, which gives you both qualifications in one day.

The combined course covers all the content from Towers for Users as well as everything from Low-Level Access. Separately, these courses would take 1.5 days. But when you do them at the same time, our expert instructors can streamline the content into one learning-packed day.
