                  • The Delegates are able to demonstrate understanding of current national and regional legislation regarding working at heights
                  • The Delegates are able to demonstrate correct identification of PPE, including identification of Global and regional standard markings e.g. harness, hard hat, lanyards, etc.
                  • The Delegates are able to demonstrate the knowledge and skills to correctly perform pre-use inspection, service, store and correctly fit relevant PPE, e.g. harness, fall arrest lanyards, guided type fall arrest lanyards and work positioning lanyards
                  • The Delegates are able to demonstrate correct use of the relevant PPE, e.g. harnesses fall arrest lanyards, guided type fall arresters and work positioning lanyards. This includes correct identification of anchor points and correct conduct on ladder
                  • The Delegates are able to demonstrate correct use of evacuation devices
                  • The Delegates are able to demonstrate how to approach rescue situations in WTGs and use rescue equipment efficiently
