3. Purpose and learning outcomes
PURPOSE
By the end of the training, the learner has acquired the ability to safely install and dismantle construction scaffolds of nine meters and higher, which is based on confirmed theoretical knowledge of safety requirements, work planning and management, technical characteristics of the materials used, types of construction scaffolding, calculation of the loads acting on them, and the correct personal protective equipment and fall protection preparation and maintenance of systems used at work.
LEARNING OUTCOMES
At the end of the training, the learner:
– knows the requirements of the legislation underlying the training;
– knows the types of scaffolding and their correct areas of application;
– applies the right materials corresponding to the technical task and conditions;
– can solve non-standard situations, find alternative solutions;
– performs an inspection of the work area, makes the necessary calculations and plans the work;
– analyzes and minimizes risks;
– understands his/her actions and performs tasks in an emergency situation.
4. Target group and requirement to start studying
Persons who wish to acquire knowledge of a new specialty, increase their practical qualifications, and also those who wish to supplement their professional knowledge as a construction scaffold installer in order to work in Estonia, Sweden and other EU countries.
Adult persons who do not have the following contraindications are allowed to attend the training:
– alcohol or drug addiction;
– epileptic, loss of consciousness and other seizures;

LEARNING METHODS:
Auditory study – 53 academic hours.
Acquisition of theoretical learning material, discussion with the trainer and other learners in groups.
Ends with a written test.
Practice hours – 15 academic hours.
Performing exercises in the field of practical exercises, applying acquired knowledge in practice (including checking and using personal protective equipment).
Ends with a practical test.
7. Evaluation, i.e. conditions for completing studies
Participation in at least 75% of classroom classes and 95% of practical classes is a prerequisite for graduation. In addition, a written and practical final test must be passed with a positive result, i.e. according to the evaluation criteria.
| Method of assessment |
Assessment criteria |
| Written test |
The learner finds, distinguishes and understands official information about the requirements for the installation of construction scaffolding, knows how to distinguish between types of construction scaffolding, performs load calculations and knows the technical properties of the materials used in the work. |
| Practical test |
The learner can choose the necessary construction scaffolding details, tools, aids and personal protective equipment to perform high-quality and safe installation work. The learner knows how to plan his work and knows how to behave in a critical situation. |
8. Documents to be issued
CERTIFICATE (confirms competence according to Swedish Arbetsmiljö verket AFS 2014:26 legislation) if the requirements for completing the studies – written and practical – have been met according to the assessment criteria.
CERTIFICATE if learning outcomes were not achieved, but the learner took part in the study. The certificate is issued according to the number of contact hours attended, but not if the learner attended less than half of the classroom hours. A learner who has received a certificate has the opportunity to take the training tests again within 60 calendar days.
