H-A-R-T awarded Accredited Training Company status

H-A-R-T (Height & Rescue Training), the specialist height safety training division of Checkmate Lifting and Safety, has been awarded Accredited Training Company status by the Lifting Equipment Engineers Association (LEEA).

The award follows a rigorous audit by LEEA technical officers and allows H-A-R-T to offer a range of LEEA-accredited training courses for end users of height safety and rescue equipment. These include Level 1—Basic Work at Height/Harness Awareness; Level 2—Work at Height for Managers; and Level 3—Inspection of equipment, as well as Rescue Training for Tower Crane, Roof Top and Racking.

Andy Stock, training director, Checkmate, said: “Being associated with and accredited by an organisation such as LEEA can only bolster our standing within the training market sector, and we look forward to presenting many courses for LEEA in the future.”

Introduced in 2009, the LEEA’s accredited training scheme provides those responsible for the safety and efficiency of overhead lifting operations with access to professionally designed and independently verified courses.
