Instructors will demonstrate safe methods of installation, removal and modification of different types of suspended scaffolds using OSHA regulations, and good work practice as a guide. Some topics covered during the course will include major scaffold components, importance of proper pre-planning, worker training, and how to read scaffold design drawings. Throughout the course, students will also participate in exercises in which they will build and dismantle supported scaffolds, apply various knots on the rope and demonstrate ability to apply basic rigging techniques. This course is for designated "Scaffold Competent Persons" responsible for overseeing these critical tasks. Online safety training on Suspended Scaffolding aids workers in recognizing the risks with scaffolds, and how these hazards can be minimalized by knowing the right methods to build, maintain, and practice scaffolding tools.

Working at altitude is continually risky which makes it extremely significant to offer a safe way for employees to access their work location. Using scaffolds to access hard-to-reach areas is frequently essential for several construction activities. For particularly difficult areas the safest method may be to use a suspended scaffold.
A competent person (proficient) individual appointed by the
employer, capable of recognizing foreseeable scaffold risks in the workplace
and empowered to swiftly address and eliminate them.
The competent person has several responsibilities subject to
the situation: to examine, assess, regulate, approve, supervise, depute, and
train workers. Companies may have more than one competent person at the working
location to tackle different phases of the scaffolding, as long as every individual
knows their particular roles and is well-informed about the appropriate
requirements for scaffolds.
Learning Outcomes:
This Course is a risk recognition for scaffold users, managers, foremen, project engineers, job site competent persons, job site safety coordinators, and others involved in the construction business.
