CANDIDATES MUST DOWNLOAD AND REGISTER ON THE NEW IPAF ePAL APP PRIOR TO ATTENDING THE COURSE

Once registered candidates will receive an email from IPAF to activate the APP

IPAF have digitised PAL Cards with the new ePAL app, available to both new and existing operators. This replaces the need for paper and plastic documents and licenses with operators’ qualifications and experience easily recorded, stored and shared.

Operators can download the app for free to Apple iOS and Android devices and use it to view and access their digital PAL Cards, logbooks and IPAF safety guides.

The New IPAF Digital PAL Card Licence Application (ePAL) will be the new default licence and the cost is included in the price of the course. For anyone who would like an additional Physical PAL Card Licence (Printed PAL Card)

This would be an additional cost of £12.50 + vat

Upon successful completion of the theory test, practical test and interview, operators will have the relevant categories added to their PAL Card, e.g. Static Vertical (1a+), Static Boom (1b+), Mobile Vertical (3a+) and Mobile Boom (3b+). The added “+” qualification on the PAL Card is proof that the cardholder has successfully demonstrated his/her ability to operate powered access equipment safely and effectively in challenging work environments.

This course is aimed at individuals with existing IPAF PAL licenses in the category they wish to gain an additional PAL + certification. It is recommended for those operators who work in more hazardous environments, such as those with confined overhead spaces.

PAL+ is an optional, additional one day of category-specific training aimed at operators working in higher risk or challenging environments
