New look IPAF certificates

People who successfully complete an IPAF training course will start receiving new look certificates with immediate effect in the UK. This is also being gradually implemented in other countries.

IPAF has updated the look of its training certificates to bring the design in line with its core training publications such as the operations manual, training CD, assessment booklet, Operators’ Safety Guide and PAL Card Log Book.

The new IPAF certificate carries a watermark as a security feature. The certificate shows the machine categories the holder has been trained in, the date issued, the expiry date and the training centre where the course was conducted.

An IPAF certificate alone should not be accepted as proof of training. Only a current PAL Card (Powered Access Licence) can provide proof of training and identity.

Holders of existing certificates do not need to get their certificates re-issued.
