PASMA Course Overview
Mobile scaffold towers with cantilevers are more complicated than regular scaffolds, making them harder to set up, take down, and move safely. The training helps workers learn how to keep the towers stable and manage the extra weight from the cantilevers to reduce the risk of tipping or collapsing.
The PASMA Mobile Scaffold Tower with Cantilevers course covers important topics, including the laws and guidelines for working safely at height, hazards to watch out for, and how to safely assemble, adjust, and dismantle these towers. It also teaches best practices for fall protection and how to inspect completed mobile towers.
Only those who have completed the PASMA Standard Tower or PASMA Combined Tower & Low-Level Access course within the last five years, have a valid certificate, and can provide proof can attend the scaffold tower training.
What Will You Learn
- Current laws about working at heights
- Best practices for health and safety
- Set up a mobile scaffold tower with cantilevers
- Parts of a tower and how to keep them in good condition

- How to safely change and take down towers
PASMA Training Assessment and Certification
After finishing the theory training, you’ll take a multiple-choice test. If you pass, you’ll move on to the practical part, building a scaffold tower with cantilevers.
Students who pass the theory and practical assessments will receive the PASMA Certificate and Photocard, valid for five years.
