Scaffolding installer course

We provide a quality assured interactive training course on scaffolding. The course is a 36-hours long theory course in scaffolding according to the Work Environment Act and the four regulations: Regulation on Organization, Management and Participation, The Workplace Regulation, Regulation on the Execution of Work, and the Producer Regulation (formerly Regulation on the Use of Work Equipment). The course covers the theoretical part required in order to become a scaffold installer according to the Regulation on the Execution of Work § 17-1 (the course was formerly called § 46C and § 13 course).

The scaffolding installer course consists of several slides with audio. One can take the course whenever and wherever you want, as long as there is an Internet connection. You’ll have to answer multiple choice exercises along the way, and in the end there is one final examination. You need to pass it in order to get the course approved. Upon the completion of the course, there will be issued a certificate. If you wish to be issued a scaffolding certificate, you must also document the following:

You learn about working at heights and what equipment you should be using. In order to use a lift, it is required that you have documented training according to the regulations and the Work Environment Act.
