Are you sure you have all the qualifications needed ?

I get bloody lost on which hoops we need to jump through to stay qualified !?
Here is what i have got , have i missed anything ?

1993 / 2361 part 1 Distinctions and merits
1994 / 2361 part 2 " " "
2004 / 2391
2006 / 2377
2007 / 2381 As i understand it this was a updated 2361 part 1 and 2 . I re sat it totally as i wanted reinforce what i already knew !
2008 / 2382-20

All passed first attempt .

Two days before i sat the 2381 exam they announced the 17th - was not impressed !!! After i booked the course i realised what a --- i would look in front of our blokes if i had failed it !:49:

Do I need more to be the MD or is this enough , i think it is but is anyone truly sure where we stand now days ?

No Pasma , but i can not remember the last time we used a tower on a job .
Even so , how much would it to be to do one of these ?
Also on another note we brought a tracked cherry picker before Christmas , but I am not sure which class of IPAF that it would come under !
I think 1b because of the outriggers but maybe 3b as it is self propelled ?

I took my Pasma in August and it was £125+vat

Yes 1a is the one with the outriggers (BTW keep your log book upto date otherwise they $crew you for a full course rather than a refresher. (I speak from experience)

Ye thanks i was warned about that one when i went to get all the IPAF classes. (In August as well!)

Pasma was August
IPAF was May

I was doing all my own work so no need to keep a logbook upto date.....

WRONG.....

 

[JD6400]

I am a bit worried about it actually , I was told that it needs at least 60 entries or full course no ifs no buts !
But now we have our own tracked machine it will only be mostly on the one machine ?
I am the the one that tends move it about around the jobs for the lads when i am down in Bucks so operate it loading and unloading ever week but will this be enough !?
The robbing ----ers !!!!

 

[supasparxs]

each use of the machine is countable

so why don't you get your spark to sign your logbook for you while you sign his for him.
that way you you both get your logbooks up to date
