Customer Feedback

Had a course today, 3/2/09, onsite, for 3a and 3b MEWPS. The instructor was James Carter and I am just giving you feedback that it was an excellent course and very well run. James was a good instructor and I am not sure that if anyone else had done the course I would have the same amount of confidence to use this equipment that I do as a result of Kingfisher & James' training. Thank you,  
Chris Smith. Plumber.

IPAF Accredited Training Courses

As an IPAF accredited Training Centre, the standards we set are accepted everywhere. When an operator has been trained through us, the Powered Access Licence he receives carries real weight. Our IPAF qualified instructors are people who know how to get the best out of each machine safely.

"Training will enhance motivation and performance of individuals and helps businesses to achieve their objectives"

Kingfisher Access' course content, instructors and training premises have been subjected to a rigorous assessment to ensure compliance with IPAF standards. Furthermore, we are subject to an ongoing audit regime conducted by IPAF Auditors to ensure that we continue to meet the high standards demanded by IPAF.

The Ultimate Proof:

A Powered Access Licence Card issued by us carries all the key facts people need to know. It states who the person is and what equipment they are trained to operate.

Details listed on the card include:

  • When and where they were trained
  • When they should be retrained
  • Categories of equipment licence is valid for
  • Photograph and signature of holder to ensure validity

The PAL Log Book

IPAF Trained Operator Log BookIt shows experience as well as competence:

  • The machine and model involved
  • The date and description of the actual work involved
  • Any reportable accidents or incidents
  • Who the work was carried out for and where it took place
  • How to get in touch with them if the need arises

A track record like this ensures that good operators are in demand more than ever - and that responsible companies find it easier to comply with legislation.

"A competent employee is able to work confidently knowing and understanding the work, the reasons it is being carried out, and how it can be done safely"

MEWP User kitOur IPAF Operator and Harness training courses now include the option of an extra-value MEWP Operator's Safety Kit ensuring that candidates are properly equipped to complete their training, and have the correct PPE to keep them safe when they return to work with their new skills.

Both of these courses are available as regularly scheduled Open Courses making it easy to plan and book your training.
