RASS Training

Overview

We are currently the only IRATA RASS-approved training member company in the UK.

Our training course is fully approved by IRATA and will be delivered by Danny Coleman. The instructor-to-candidate ratio is 1:8, and places are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis.

Please note that this training is available exclusively to currently certificated IRATA L3 technicians.

The course runs over two days and includes mandatory scenario-based group exercises, during which you will be required to demonstrate competence in all relevant syllabus elements.

Price includes assessment and official certification to demonstrate competence.

During these group exercises,
you will be required to:
  • deliver a pre-work briefing
  • deliver a toolbox talk
  • update a risk assessment and communicate the changes to the work team
  • update a rescue plan and communicate the changes to the work team

Following the training, you will sit an online exam consisting of 50 knowledge-based questions and 2 scenario-based questions. You will have 90 minutes to complete it.

On successful completion, an IRATA L3 technician will meet the HSE requirement to be trained and competent in the planning and management aspects of the rope access industry.

The qualification is valid for three years and must be renewed to maintain competence.

Course Structure

It’s always a good idea to familiarise yourself with any guidance videos we suggest for your training course if available.
