FAQ's

Aerial Work Platforms have been renamed and are now called MEWP, which is the acronym that stands for Mobile Elevating Work Platforms. In short, they are machines that elevate workers without the use of scaffolding.

The average time for completion is 2.5 hours for operators with no previous aerial lift experience. Operators that are familiar with the machinery may complete the course in less time.

To start the process to become scissor, aerial or boom lift certified: 

  • You must legally be allowed to work in the country where you are employed. That means being a citizen, a permanent resident or a temporary resident with an applicable work visa
