Conditions for participation
There are a number of things that are important to participate in the training:
- Provide a complete and completed logbook with only logged rope access hours. Are there enough hours to possibly be able to go to the next level? Logs must be handed in on the first day of training. Don't have a log anymore? Please contact IRATA head office
- Did you fail the last time: is there no more than 60 days between the start of the new training?
- Don't forget to bring your valid ID
- Check carefully whether your certification that you have already obtained is still valid. Remember that your certification must still be valid on the first day of training
- All necessary materials are made available.
