Construction PASMA tower training in one workspace
Course selection, approved centre training, PhotoCard issue, and five-year refresher in one structured workspace.
The situation
PASMA (Prefabricated Access Suppliers and Manufacturers Association) training certifies individuals to assemble, use, move, and inspect mobile access towers safely. Training at a PASMA-approved centre leads to a PASMA PhotoCard or e-Learning certificate showing the course completed. It is operator training certification, not company ISO certification, and there is no stage 1 or stage 2 audit cycle.
Most operatives complete the Towers for Users course (typically one day) at an approved training centre, pass theory and practical assessment, and receive a PASMA PhotoCard valid for five years. Towers for Managers, Inspectors, and other courses extend competence for supervisory and inspection roles. Refresher training is required before the card expires. Employers track operative cards for site access, but each individual holds their own PASMA credential. Elevale does not deliver PASMA training or issue PhotoCards. It gives operatives and site managers one structured workspace to manage training bookings, course scope, card validity, and refresher deadlines.
Why spreadsheets and point tools fall short
PASMA card copies sit in a site office folder without checking which course each operative actually completed. Towers for Users certificates mix with manager and inspector records while principal contractors request proof for roles the operative never trained for. Refresher dates live in personal phone reminders, so cards lapse before site managers notice.
Generic training registers list course names without connecting course scope, PhotoCard expiry, approved centre records, and refresher bookings in one maintained record that operatives and site managers can review before tower work starts.
How Elevale supports your PASMA journey
Elevale gives tower operatives and site managers one workspace to manage PASMA training from course selection through approved centre booking, assessment, PhotoCard issue, and five-year refresher. Certification Pathway maps each stage with linked evidence, review dates, and named owners where a business tracks multiple operatives.
Company Wiki stores training certificates, tower safe use procedures, and pre-use inspection checklists with version history linked to pathway stages. Task Management connects training bookings, assessment dates, course scope updates, and refresher deadlines so site access readiness does not depend on photocopied cards or disconnected reminders.
Certification Pathway
Track courses, training, and PhotoCard renewal by stage
Certification Pathway structures your PASMA journey by stage, not by generic compliance modules. Course selection, approved centre training, assessment results, PhotoCard validity, and five-year refresher each link evidence, owners, and review dates in one maintained record.
Company Wiki
Tower procedures linked to operative course records
Company Wiki stores training certificates, tower safe use procedures, and pre-use inspection checklists with version history. Link wiki pages directly to pathway stages so site procedures stay connected to the courses on each operative PASMA record.
Task Management
Refresher and card expiry dates stay on record
Task Management connects training centre bookings, assessment dates, course scope changes, and refresher deadlines. Operatives and site managers see the same dates instead of relying on separate phone reminders.
A practical rhythm for PASMA
- Select PASMA courses. Confirm which PASMA courses each operative needs based on site role, then map Towers for Users, Managers, Inspectors, or combined courses in the training pathway.
- Book approved training. Schedule PASMA-approved courses at an authorised centre and record booking dates beside each operative and course type.
- Complete assessment. Pass theory and practical assessment for tower assembly, use, and dismantling, then attach training centre certificates to the pathway record.
- Issue PhotoCards. Record PhotoCard issue and expiry dates beside each operative course scope before mobile access tower work starts on site.
- Plan five-year refresher. Book refresher training before PhotoCard expiry so operatives stay qualified for tower work your projects require.
What changes when your PASMA journey runs in one system
Site managers tracking PASMA tower training in Elevale spend less time checking photocopied cards and more time keeping course scope current. Training evidence, PhotoCard dates, and refresher bookings stay connected in one record across multiple operatives.
When site roles change, operatives join or leave site, or refresher training falls due, linked pathway stages update with them. The next tower erection or site induction starts from a maintained training register, not a folder rebuilt from training centre emails.

What is PASMA training?
PASMA (Prefabricated Access Suppliers and Manufacturers Association) training certifies individuals to assemble, use, move, and inspect mobile access towers safely. The most common course is Towers for Users, typically completed in one day at a PASMA-approved centre. Successful candidates receive a PASMA PhotoCard valid for five years. Elevale does not deliver PASMA training or issue PhotoCards.
What PASMA courses are available?
PASMA offers courses including Towers for Users (assembly, use, and dismantling), Towers for Managers (supervisory competence), Towers for Inspectors (pre-use and periodic inspection), and combined or specialist courses. Course choice depends on the operative role on site. Elevale helps you track course scope, training evidence, and PhotoCard expiry for each operative.
How long is a PASMA PhotoCard valid?
PASMA PhotoCards are valid for five years from issue. Operatives must complete refresher training at a PASMA-approved centre before expiry to maintain qualification. Letting a card lapse can block tower work on sites that require current PASMA evidence. Elevale keeps card expiry and refresher dates visible across your operative register.
Can employers track PASMA cards for site operatives?
Yes. Employers and site managers typically maintain a training register showing which operatives hold valid PASMA PhotoCards and for which courses. Each operative holds their own credential, but the business needs visibility before tower work starts. Elevale lets site managers track multiple operative pathways from one workspace.
Can Elevale help with PASMA training records?
Yes. Elevale does not deliver PASMA training or issue PhotoCards, but it gives operatives and site managers one workspace to manage course selection, approved centre bookings, assessment evidence, PhotoCard validity, and five-year refresher tasks linked to each stage.
