    Please note: The e-learning module must be completed within 6 months of the date of booking

    NOTE
    Completing the e-learning alone does not qualify you as a tower user; industry standards require both the knowledge gained in the e-learning theory session and assessed assembly and use of the equipment to demonstrate proficiency. Once you have completed the e-learning, you must also complete the practical assessment and testing at a PASMA approved HSS Training centre. On successful achievement, of all three parts, we will apply for your PASMA Certification and ID Card.
    To take advantage of this, please follow the below steps:
    1. Get in touch with us on 0345 605 0006 or click below to book - at this time you will be charged the full course cost
    2. Complete the theory e-learning module which can be done anytime, anywhere and on any device, at a pace which suits you  (compatible with PCs, Macs, tablets and smartphones on any modern internet browser)
    3. Once you have completed and successfully passed the e-learning, please contact us to book your practical training and assessment at one of our PASMA approved centres - you will be asked to provide evidence of successful completion of the e-learning certificate which is created / printed at the end of your e-learning
    4. Delegates are required to attend an HSS Training PASMA approved training centre within 90 days of completing the e-learning module to sit their theory exam and undertake practical training and assessment [this has been temporarily increased due to Covid-19]
    5. You will need to bring a copy of your ‘certificate of completion’ to the course for the trainer to verify, without this you will be refused entry
    6. Upon entry to the course, you will be asked to complete an open book multiple choice questionnaire which is based on the knowledge gained from the e-learning. This will be followed by a practical training and assessment session, with the duration dependent upon knowledge and experience

    • This course is also available as a full-day tutor led PASMA Towers for Users course, please click here. 

    Since the assembly and use of mobile towers can be physically demanding, users should be physically fit, in good health and should, generally, not have problems with eyesight or hearing, heart disease, high blood pressure, epilepsy, fear of heights / vertigo, giddiness / difficulty with balance, impaired limb function, alcohol or drug dependence or psychiatric illness.


    As a company that is committed to providing high quality services to all our clients, we will always aim to make reasonable adjustments ensuring all individuals receive the required help they need.

    All delegates will still be expected to complete a theory test when they arrive at a training centre to verify that they have the knowledge to continue to the practical element of the course.  Delegates will be required to bring their e-learning 'certificate of completion' with them on the day.

    PASMA - Mobile Access Towers for Users (E-Learning) Course FAQs.


    About PASMA

    Q1. What is PASMA training? 
    Mobile Access towers are portable, prefabricated structures used to safely work at height. PASMA (Prefabricated Access Suppliers' and Manufacturers Association) provides nationally accredited training for mobile access towers. PASMA training aims to help delegates understand safe assembly, use and inspection of these towers, supporting compliance with industry health and safety requirements.
    _________________________________________________________________________________

    Q2. What is the PASMA Mobile Access Towers for Users course? 
    The one-day course aims to teach delegates how to safely assemble, use, move, inspect and dismantle mobile access towers (commonly known as scaffold towers) used indoors up to 12 metres and outdoors up to 8 metres. It combines theory and practical training to ensure safe working at height with scaffold towers.
    _________________________________________________________________________________

    Q3. What is the PASMA e-learning module? 
    The e-learning theory module covers the theory component of the PASMA Mobile Access Towers for Users course, including key safety principles, legislation, risk management and best practices. You must successfully complete it before attending the practical training session. 
    _________________________________________________________________________________

    Q4. Is PASMA a legal requirement? 
    Under the Work at Height Regulations, employers have a legal responsibility to ensure delegates who assemble or use mobile access towers are properly trained and compliant. PASMA certification is widely recognised as the industry standard for demonstrating this compliance and is often a mandatory requirement on construction sites.
    _________________________________________________________________________________

    Q5. Is PASMA training valid internationally?
    PASMA certification is UK-based and widely recognised across Europe. However, some countries may require additional country-specific training. Please refer to the PASMA website for additional guidance.

    How the Training Works 

    Q8. How long is the e-learning module and when should I complete it?

    Assessments & Certification 

    Q11. How long is my PASMA certificate valid for? 
    Your digital PASMA Photocard and certificate are valid for 5 years. After that, you’ll need to complete a refresher or relevant PASMA course to keep your training up to date.
