S009 - PIA Pole Stepping on Congested Poles

This accreditation is for Communication Providers (CP) engineers and contractors working in the Openreach infrastructure including Northern Ireland. This module consists of two parts, a questionnaire and a practical session. The module assesses the delegate's knowledge and ability to increase space in the upper pole envelope by moving the top bass step downwards in line with the current PIA terms and conditions and also to understand the new upper envelope of space and its measurement.
The accreditation covers two complementary modules:
Module 1 develops the delegates knowledge and understanding of how to  increase space in the upper pole envelope, by moving the top bass step downwards, and to understand and measure the upper envelope of space.
Module 2 tests and certifies the delegates knowledge gained under Module 1.

Mandatory PPE - Please note without the correct PPE candidates could be refused onto the event and charges will still apply.
