SAIA Suspended Scaffolding Competent Person Training

The ESS Training Center by Expert Safety Services is your destination for hands-on, real-world training led by industry veterans. Our upcoming training events deliver exactly what your team needs to stay safe, sharp, and ahead of the curve. 

Suspended Scaffolding Training Overview

Suspended scaffolding requires a designated competent person on every job — someone who can spot a hazard before it becomes an incident. This SAIA-aligned course puts that responsibility in capable hands.

Delivered under the training programs Michael Draper, owner of Expert Safety Services, oversees, students learn the safe setup, operation, inspection, and dismantling of suspended work platforms, with a sharp focus on hazard identification, rigging technique, and OSHA compliance.

Key Elements of Suspended Scaffolding Training

  • Safe Setup & Dismantling – Build and break down suspended platforms the right way.
  • Hazard Identification – Recognize the risks specific to suspended scaffold work.
  • Rigging & Load Calculations – Get the math and the mechanics right, every time.
  • OSHA Compliance – Meet the standards required of a designated competent person.
