You set up a training profile before you pay. It asks for more than a normal checkout does - your employer, your role, an emergency contact - because this is a training record, not a shopping cart. It is the file an auditor asks to see, and it is why you can pull your certificate up years from now instead of hunting for a PDF in your email. Give yourself five minutes and do it once.

About the course

What this course covers.

This course is scissor-lift-specific, not a general aerial platform course: it works through the types of scissor lifts and the training needed to operate them, and the hazards particular to using one.

It covers pre-start and worksite inspections, and setting up, operating, and moving a scissor lift safely.

It closes with a topic a broader aerial-platform course doesn't cover in this much detail: working on the ground near a scissor lift, not just operating one.
