Title: Absailing courses - are they worth it?
Post by: Majestic on December 30, 2003, 11:34:29 pm

Does anyone work at heights without using a pole , there are quite a few buildings where I live that you cant get to with a pole and the only other way would be a  harness .Has anyone been on any training  courses for this. Are they worth it . 8)

I went on an IRATA training course many years ago, and it was a waste of time, the training lasted 1 week; it was good training, probably the best you could get.  Trouble was after the weeks training, and passing the tests, you were still expected to have someone at a higher level work with you, at a very expensive rate.
