What is a PAV?
PAV stands for Push Around Vertical. These are small, manually positioned access platforms designed for low-level work at height, typically indoors. Workers commonly use them in facilities maintenance, installation work, and construction.
Do I need a licence to operate a PAV?
While a formal licence isn’t legally required, most employers and sites demand a recognised qualification such as Szkolenie operatorów IPAF PAV to prove competence.
Is this course suitable for beginners?
Yes. This course is designed to teach safe use of PAVs from the ground up. No prior experience is needed – just a good understanding of English and basic physical fitness.
What equipment will I train on?
You’ll train using real PAV machines under controlled conditions. The equipment reflects what you’re likely to encounter on UK job sites and in commercial environments.
Can I do the theory part online?
Yes – we offer an eLearning option where you complete the theory remotely. You’ll still need to attend a training centre for the practical session and final assessment.
What happens if I don’t pass?
You’ll get detailed feedback and the option to rebook for a retest. Our instructors aim to help you succeed – not catch you out.
What should I bring with me?
