FISAT
TRAINING


In this course, you will acquire knowledge and skills in rope access and positioning technology (RAP) according to the FISAT standard. FISAT, the professional and interest group for rope-assisted work techniques, defines nationally and internationally (especially throughout Europe) recognised safety and training guidelines for rope-assisted work. 

The training imparts the contents necessary for the safe and efficient procedure of tasks in difficult-to-access RAP areas. 

We offer training in the following areas:

  • FISAT LEVEL 1 (5 days)
  • FISAT LEVEL 2 (5 days)
  • FISAT LEVEL 3 (5 days)
  • FISAT refresher training (1 day)

Special features for upgrade training

  • Upgrade to Level 2
    The Level 1 certificate must still be valid on the day of the test!
  • Upgrade to Level 3
    min. 250 days of experience in the logbook (FISAT app) at Level 2
    min. 21 years of age
    The Level 2 certificate must still be valid on the day of the test!
