Training
When it comes to executing scaffolding projects it imperative that those involved in the design and the installation have the correct training. Scaffolding is about making work sites safer and ensuring that access to the right information is a core Layher value.
High Risk Scaffolding Licence
Layher has partnered with numerous Registered Training Organisations (RTO’s) that provide Basic, Intermediate and Advanced scaffolding training. These RTO’s are in every Australian state and deliver the content using Layher products. The trainers within these organisations are not only experienced scaffolders but have undertaken familiarisation training in the Layher systems.
Verification Of Competency (VOC) can also be arranged through this network of RTOs. Contact Us for a recommendation of the RTO closest to your project.
Layher’s LayPLAN design and planning software provides a significant advantage to designers, scaffolders and tradespeople looking for a quick and efficient way to deliver their scaffolding quotes and projects.
Specifically tailored to meet the requirements of the Australian building and construction industry, the software provides you with a graphical interface that you can use to easily plan your scaffolding, stair, façade or roof solution. It is also designed to assist your business in maximising the utilisation of your existing product, and with streamlining logistical and building processes.
