AUTHORIZED PERSON
Gravitec’s Fall Protection Authorized Person Course is best-suited for workers at height who are required to have a working knowledge of the safe use of fall protection systems and their components. The course curriculum is focused on fall protection theory and practical hands-on exercises. It covers the use of the most common, commercially available fall protection systems. (This course does not address the installation, design or erection of fall protection systems.)
ROPE DESCENT Systems
Gravitec’s Rope Descent Systems is an intensive three-day (24 hour) program intended for any workers who are expected to work on the roofs of tall buildings and descend over the side to conduct work. Any scope of work (architects, surveyors, glazers, inspectors, window cleaners) that must exit the roof and descend the side of buildings would benefit from the course content. The course has a heavy emphasis on descent control devices and rope descent systems. Students begin using rope descent systems on day one and throughout the balance of the course.
