Course Overview

Chosen course
IPAF PAL Plus

For this course, each course has a maximum number of lifts rather than spaces. Two categories per delegate counts as two lifts.

IPAF has developed the PAL Plus course in response to demand from UK contractors for training that better prepares operators of Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWPs) for work in higher risk or more challenging environments. 

IPAF PAL Plus (PAL+) course is an optional additional full day of category-specific training and complements the IPAF Operator Course by providing further training for MEWP operators. IPAF PAL Plus (PAL+) is intended to be more advanced, challenging and extensive than the PAL Operator course. 

The IPAF PAL Plus course is designed for skilled operators who already hold a current IPAF PAL Card qualification in the relevant categories (3a and 3b).
