Do you want to learn how to assemble scaffolding efficiently and safely?

Become a scaffolder

Working on a construction site is undoubtedly not the easiest of jobs. It requires employees to be not only fit, but also competent in the use of specialised equipment. Investing in a scaffolding qualification course is therefore a very good decision if you are considering broadening your skills in the construction sector.

During the scaffolding assembly course at OSO, you will gain the necessary theoretical knowledge and practical skills to safely and efficiently perform scaffolding assembly work. During our training, you will not only have the opportunity to confirm your newly acquired skills, but also gain valuable experience needed in your future work. Under the watchful eye of our experienced trainers, anyone can acquire a license to install scaffolding.  

Who can take part in the training? 

Our trainers are experienced staff at a high level, ready to train anyone, regardless of the level of previous experience in the work of a scaffolding fitter.  

In order to participate in the installation course conducted at OSO, you must meet the following requirements: 

  • 18 years or older, 
  • Education at least elementary, 
  • No medical contraindications to practise as a scaffolder. 

Anyone who meets all of the above conditions can take advantage of the OSO company's offer to expand their competences with qualifications for the assembly of scaffolding. 

What is the scaffold assembler's course? 

Like most other courses offered at OSO, the scaffolding installer course consists of three parts: theoretical, practical and a final exam. The qualifications gained on the course are unlimited, anyone who completes the training course with a pass in the examination will be awarded a scaffolding licence. What do the different parts of the training look like? 

The first part of the scaffold assembler's course is the theoretical part. At this stage, students will learn a number of basic issues needed to work as a scaffolding fitter. The scope of information provided in the theoretical part includes: 

  • Health and safety rules applicable to the erection and dismantling of scaffolding, 
  • Ways of keeping adequate technical records, 
  • Rules for the use of scaffolding, 
  • Types of pipes used in scaffolding assembly, 
  • Ways to fold the scaffolding correctly, 
  • Activities before and after scaffolding work.

In the theoretical part, our training staff provides the trainees with all the information they need to work safely on the scaffolding. Additionally, classes in the theoretical part can be conducted remotely, at the client's request, via our online education platform. After a series of lectures on theoretical knowledge, the time comes for the practical part of the course. The practical part consists of exercises in designated facilities. 

Final exam 

Każdy kursant na koniec podchodzi do egzaminu, składającego się z dwóch części. Kurs montażysty rusztowań kończy się egzaminem złożonym, podobnie jak kurs, z dwóch części: teoretycznej i praktycznej. Egzamin odbywa się przed Komisją Egzaminacyjną powołaną przez Sieć Badawcza Łukasiewicz – Warszawski Instytut Technologiczny dawniej (Instytut Mechanizacji Budownictwa i Górnictwa Skalnego z siedzibą w Warszawie). Pierwszym krokiem jest część teoretyczna. Składa się ona z pisemnego egzaminu, na którym można znaleźć zarówno zamknięte jak i otwarte pytania. W następnej, praktycznej części egzaminu kursanci demonstrują przed komisją nabyte na szkoleniu zdolności związane z pracą przy rusztowaniu. Muszą oni między innymi samodzielnie zaprezentować montaż i demontaż rusztowania.  Każdy, kto uzyska wynik pozytywny z obu części egzaminu otrzymuje uprawnienia na montaż rusztowań.
