IPAF training is an essential part of MEWP operation. Learning how to operate mobile elevated work platforms takes expertise and an IPAF operator course is the best way to gain that expertise. The IPAF 1B training course will provide the practical training to operate any static boom lift.

At Star Platforms, we provide a range of different IPAF training courses, including the IPAF 1B training course.

What is an IPAF 1B Training Course?

This IPAF 1B course covers the basic training needed to operate a static boom lift, such as cherry pickers. This type of training is for people using mobile access platforms that have extended reach and are potentially working in more challenging, confined spaces. 

During the course you’ll have both a practical assessment and a theory test that will test what you’ve learned in this familiarisation course. You will also become proficient in safety regulations and how to manoeuvre a static boom lift in confined overhead spaces.
