What is IPAF?

IPAF, or the International Powered Access Federation, is a non-profit organization founded in 1983 with the intention of promoting safe and effective use of powered machine access worldwide.

Not only has IPAF contributed to the overall design of the majority of powered access equipment being used today, but they have also been responsible for implementing many health and safety procedures that are now in place too.

With the help of its members, it acts as a forum for only rental and safety training companies, but for manufacturers and distributors as well.

Our range of courses are certified by TÜV as conforming to ISO 18878, and over 10,000 operators are trained each year. With this amount of experience and credibility, it's no wonder that their courses are so trusted and respected.

Membership of IPAF is available to anyone who uses access platforms from a wide variety of sources. Manufacturers and rental and distribution companies from more than 45 different countries around the world are just some of the businesses that benefit from International Powered Access Federation IPAF membership.

There are seven different categories of MEWP alone, so for every type of elevating platform, there's a course to match it. So, if you need to know your telehandler from your boom truck, then you should get in touch and let us help you select which IPAF operator course best suits your needs.
