The Fall Arrest Technician course is aimed at small working teams (such as the telecoms industry, the
power distribution industry and technical rigging industry) that need to use a combination of fall arrest
systems, install their own temporary systems and perform their own rescues if required. Small teams
trained on this programme can only operate without supervision if a risk assessment, a fall protection
plan and worksite procedure is in place.
