PRE-COURSE INSTRUCTIONS AND ENTRY
REQUIREMENTS
– SpanSet Module 1 (1 Day duration for modules 1 and 6).
– All delegates must be able to certify that they are physically fit and have no medical conditions that might prevent them working at height. (A list of conditions
that could affect practical training and work at height are available on request.)
– SpanSet reserves the right to exclude unsuitable delegates from training courses.
– Delegates must be 18 years or over.

OVERVIEW
– This course is designed for those who intend to access rooftops, or similar structures using preinstalled fall arrest systems and use work restraint techniques
to carry out work at height.
– On completion of the course they should be able to carry out pre-use checks and use pre-installed access systems. They will also be able to set-up work
restraint systems for fall prevention using a variety of different techniques and equipment.
– During training delegates will be expected to carry out activities at height. This will provide an insight into the delegates’ ability to operate in such conditions.
This is only an indication of their capability, as it is not possible to recreate exact working environments.
– The actual height and exposure will be set out on the certification, but this is only to show what was included in the training. The height shown on the certification
is not intended to limit the height at which the delegate can operate.
– Further details of the training facilities, first aid provision, insurance, etc are available upon written request.

– In addition to the test carried out in module 1 all delegates will be monitored by the trainer throughout the practical sessions. Any concerns will be addressed
by delegate and trainer on a continual basis.
– The trainer will use practical tasks to assess the delegates competence and understanding.
