IPAF counts towards 500000 PAL Cards

IPAF has added a PAL Card ticker to its website. It registers every new PAL card issued worldwide and currently stands at over 400000.

IPAF is eagerly anticipating the day when it registers half a million cards.

The PAL Card (Powered Access Licence) is recognised around the world across a range of industries as proof of a standard of platform operator training.

It is issued by the International Powered Access Federation (IPAF) to platform operators who successfully complete a training course at an IPAF-approved training centre.

The IPAF training programme was developed by leading industry professionals and is certified by TÜV as conforming to the international standard ISO 18878:2004 Mobile elevating work platforms - Operator (driver) training.

More than 90,000 PAL Cards are issued each year through over 500 IPAF-approved training centres around the world.
