TRAINING

At Access Solutions Scaffolding, we identified a critical industry gap: the quality of scaffolding operatives. Rather than relying on external recruitment that often delivered substandard personnel, we developed our own skilled workforce through comprehensive internal training programmes.

​

All personnel begin as COTS Labourers and undergo extensive training, including health, safety, and environmental induction, plus specialised courses in manual handling, power tool use, forklift operations, and groundsman certification.

​

Following their initial training, scaffolding labourers can progress through the CITB apprenticeship programme, achieving Part 2 Scaffolders certification and NVQ level 2 in Access and Rigging over approximately two years.

​

We maintain continuous professional development through additional training including EUSR Utility SHEA, asbestos awareness, working at height certification, first aid, HGV qualifications, scaffold inspection, and SSSTS certification.

​

Our CITB-qualified supervisors conduct regular toolbox talks and equipment inspections, working alongside our Safety/Training Officer to ensure consistent operational excellence across all projects.
