IRATA (the Industrial Rope Access Trade Association) is the world's leading authority on industrial rope access, and its qualification is the global benchmark for working at height.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat IRATA courses does AZM Solutions offer?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAZM Solutions offers all three IRATA levels — Technician Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3 — plus revalidation and refresher training.

IRATA Level 1 is designed for people new to the industry — you just need to be at least 18 years old, physically fit to work safely at height, and have the right attitude toward safety. Higher levels require logged hours and prior certification.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat are the entry requirements for IRATA Level 1?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTo enrol in IRATA Level 1 you must be at least 18 years of age and physically fit to work safely at height.

You need a further 1,000 recorded rope access hours in your logbook and at least 12 months since achieving Level 2. To work as a Level 3 you need a current first aid certificate. Existing Level 3 holders can also use the course to revalidate.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long is an IRATA qualification valid?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAn IRATA qualification is valid for three (3) years from the date of successful assessment.
