Course Outline & Content

Scissor Lift Training / Vertical Mast Lift Training

Phase 1 – Theory Training

Trainees are guided through a comprehensive & interactive review of the operators workbook covering:

  • Rules / Regulations

  • Types Of Aerial Lifts

  • Main Parts & Functions

  • Safety Systems & Devices

  • Stability & Capacity Characteristics

  • Inspections

  • Fall Protection Requirements

  • Safe Operating Procedures

  • Parking & Shut Down

  • Fuels And Batteries

Phase 2 – Theory Evaluation

Upon theory completion, participants will take part in a knowledge review test consisting of multiple choice, true/false and essay-type questions. These tests are graded, returned to the trainees, and then reviewed to ensure proper retention.
A minimum score of 70% is required to pass.

NOTE: Anyone with known difficulties in English / written-based tests must be accompanied by an interpreter or consult us about any difficulties that may arise.

Phase 3 – Practical Training

Trainees are shown the pre-use inspection, machine controls and safe operating procedures and then given the opportunity to practice under the helpful eye of the program trainer.

Phase 4 – Practical Evaluation

Trainees are assessed as having reached a minimum skill level and then individually evaluated using the equipment in a series of skill-reinforcing scenarios. Following the evaluation, trainees are debriefed about their performance and then given the opportunity to address any issues they may have. Each trainee’s records will be handed to the employer (or trainee) after completion of the program. The practical evaluation phase also includes an interactive discussion where trainees can engage in conversation and ask questions to enhance their understanding of the scissor lift training course content.

COURSE MATERIAL PROVIDED:
  • Workbook

  • Supplementary Handouts

  • Wallet Card Certification (upon successful completion)

IMPORTANT NOTICES:

The program takes part in a classroom for theory learning, but participation in the field is vital to successful completion. Participants are required to bring all site-required PPE, including :

  • Steel toed work boots
  • High visibility vest
  • Hard hat (if required)
  • Any other PPE required by the workplace
  • Harnesses are provided but if participants are more comfortable using/bringing their own, they are encouraged to do so.

NOTE: Because previous training is hard to judge from one training company to another, re-certification courses will only be made available to individuals able to present proof of previous training from Clockwork Safety & Equipment Training or another widely credible source. In-house training at a previous employer will NOT suffice.
