Project Description

16-Hour Suspended Scaffold User

The teaching faculty at Andromeda Academy is unparalleled in their scaffold expertise. Courses are enriched by decades of hands-on knowledge that will be conveyed to students. Teaching will include a focus on OSHA and DOB policies and procedures, standards for the suspended scaffold, and an emphasis on safety including the recognition of hazards. A significant portion of the class time will be dedicated to hands-on training and practice to practice inspecting scaffold equipment, presenting, building and using rigging equipment.

Each student will be evaluated by the instructor to gauge ability to apply rope knots, operate a hoist motor, build a block and tackle system, and terminating rope wire.
