Course Overview
This course is a legal requirement for anybody required to operate a builder's hoist (also known as an “Alimak” or a man material hoist) in which personnel, goods and/or materials may be hoisted, and which comprises a car, structure, machinery or other equipment associated with the hoist, and which may be a cantilever hoist, a tower

It also encompasses the requirements for operating a materials barrow hoist (HM) for licensing purposes.
