The IRATA (Industrial Rope Access Trade Association) training course provides the skills and certification required to work as a professional rope access technician. This certification is recognised worldwide and is the industry standard for safe work at height.
The Level 1 course is the entry point for anyone looking to start a career in rope access. It is designed for complete beginners and requires no prior experience.
As a Level 1 technician, you will learn fundamental rope access tasks, including basic rigging and rope manoeuvres, under the direct supervision of a Level 3 technician.
To be eligible for the Level 2 course, you must be a certified IRATA Level 1 technician with a minimum of 1,000 logged working hours and at least 12 months of experience.
A Level 2 technician is an experienced professional capable of performing more complex rigging, undertaking rescues from various situations, and assembling and implementing hauling systems.
The Level 3 course is for experienced technicians who are ready to move into a supervisory role. Candidates must have extensive experience and hold a current and appropriate first-aid certificate.
A Level 3 technician is a supervisor who is responsible for understanding and implementing rope access procedures, risk assessments, and method statements. They have an extensive knowledge of advanced rigging and rescue techniques.
