Ladder Association Ladder Inspectors Training Course

Please Note - The Ladder Users course must be completed before the Ladder Inspectors course can be taken.

This ladder training- the ladder inspectors course provides successful delegates with a nationally recognised certification enabling them to safely inspect ladders & step ladders. Delegates will receive a British Ladder Association Inspectors Photocard ID & Certificate.

Upon successful completion of the ladder training, every delegate receives a certificate and Ladder Association photo card as objective proof of competence. All centres are audited annually to ensure their continuing compliance with the high standards of the scheme.

The Ladderstore training facility in Bolton runs a fixed course per month and takes individual bookings as well as group bookings. Companies with larger training requirements can book additional training days at the centre or arrange for onsite training to be delivered by Ladderstore.

As a natural and logical extension of its activities, the Ladder Association, formerly the British Ladder Manufacturers Association (BLMA), now operates a national training scheme for users, supervisors and managers wanting to equip themselves with the knowledge, skills and confidence necessary to use ladders legally and safely.

Written with guidance from the UK's leading experts on ladder manufacture, maintenance and safety, the Ladder Association scheme addresses all the issues raised by the Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 and, more recently, the Work at Height Regulations 2005.
