Our IPAF MEWP Spotter Training eLearning Course provides training on the effective methods of communication between a MEWP Spotter and a MEWP Operator, including industry-established hand signals, which can be essential to safe operations in situations where the Operator has restricted visibility.
Assigning someone the role of Spotter provides additional safety in MEWP operations, enabling the Operator to be made aware of any hazards they may not be able to see in their line of sight. This course will also give individuals and organisations peace of mind from self-paced, eLearning training that's flexible, efficient and effective.
The course is delivered entirely via IPAF’s eLearning platform.
This course is aimed at anyone who may need to assist a MEWP
Operator to safely manoeuvre a MEWP into position. IPAF recommends the course
is also taken by Operators, supervisors and site managers, to ensure everyone
on site understands the Spotter’s role, hand signals and where the Spotter
should be safely positioned.
