Início / Works at Height and Rope Access
The CTeSP course in Works at Height and Rope Access aims to equip students with tools that allow them to design, plan, organise and monitor tasks involving working at height, as well as to use rescue techniques and moving objects in confined or hard-to-reach places (caves, trees, canyons, factory structures, etc.), participating in the management and maintenance of facilities and equipment. This is a two-year course, with a year and a half of classroom work and working in a laboratory context and a six-month internship in a business context, following international training benchmarks, namely the IRATA standards – Industrial Rope Access Trade Association, the leading association in the Rope Access market. Therefore, we can provide a broad set of skills to professionals in this area and offer a valuable service to the region and the country.
