IPAF Test – Get Certified to Operate MEWPs Safely

To become a certified operator of Mobile Elevating Work Platforms (MEWPs), you must pass the IPAF test. This test ensures that you understand the risks, safety procedures, and responsibilities that come with operating equipment such as boom lifts (3b), scissor lifts (3a), and vertical lifts (1b). Once you pass both the theory and practical portions, you receive the IPAF PAL card—your license to operate MEWPs professionally.
