Course Overview

Our PASMA Towers for Users course will equip you with the specialist knowledge you need to work safely with mobile access towers, delivering a minimum of 6 hours of instruction and is designed to instruct up to a maximum of 12 delegates. This course provides training on mobile access towers manufactured in aluminium alloy or GRP fibreglass, approved to BS EN1004-1:2020 which carry a current British Standard or other equivalent mark of approval.

As one of Kentec's flagship courses with over 80,000 delegates each year, it is ideal for those new to mobile access towers and work at height. Spend a day at our approved PASMA Training Centre with one of our expert instructors and become knowledgeable on:

  • How to safely assemble, dismantle, alter and move mobile access towers
  • How to safely use mobile access towers
  • How to inspect mobile access towers
  • How to identify hazards relating to their use
  • What legislation, regulations and guidance are applicable to these towers

This course consists of a training room lecture, DVD presentation, written assessment, practical training and assessment.


This course is aimed at personnel who are or will be responsible for assembling, dismantling, moving, inspecting and using mobile access towers. There is no prerequisite required for this course, although a working knowledge of mobile access towers is an advantage.

Since the safe use of mobile access towers requires that delegates consult safety notices and read and thoroughly understand the manufacturer’s instruction manual, English literacy and language comprehension are important requirements for any tower user.

Please note that delegates will be expected to work at height whilst building a mobile access tower, so please ensure delegates are in good health and do not have a fear of heights that may preclude them from taking part in the practical assessment.

Successful delegates will receive a PASMA Towers for Users e-certificate and physical photo ID card, valid for a period of 5 years from the date of the course. All successful delegates can also access their e-certification through the free PASMA TowerSure smartphone app, available on iOS and Android.

They will gain an understanding of current relevant legislation and be able to dismantle, assemble, inspect and most importantly use mobile access towers safely, in line with current approved methods and manufacturer’s instructions.

Once you’ve completed the course, you become eligible for more advanced PASMA courses which cover different tower configurations, such as:
