The Ladder Association (tLA) Training

Ladder & Stepladder Training
Accredited by the Ladder Association (tLA), this one day course (typically 8.30am - 3.30pm) offers nationally recognised training for anyone who uses supervises or manages the use of ladders and stepladders.

Many organisations are of the opinion that the use of ladders and stepladders has been banned by the HSE, or has been made illegal by the Work at Height Regulations 2005. Neither of these myths is true, and indeed the HSE has recently said so in the "Myth of the month" section on it's website.
