Prerequisites

Requirements for rigger level II training depend on the training provider, your employer and the site. Typical points are:

• Basic fitness for the role and the ability to follow instructions in the language of the course
• A valid ID and any documents the training provider asks for
• Any minimum age, medical fitness or prior experience set by the provider, your employer or the site: please state these when you request the quotation
• Personal protective equipment for the practical part: confirm who provides it

Assessment and completion record

Training providers normally record attendance and the assessment result. What is issued at the end, for example a certificate of completion, how long it is valid and whether your employer, client or any authority recognises it, is decided by the training provider and by the organisation that needs it.

Tell us your requirement when you ask for a quotation. It is confirmed in the quotation rather than assumed, and this page does not state or imply any accreditation or approval.
