Scaffolding Training in Nigeria

We were approached to travel to Nigeria to provide scaffolding training for a group of delegates who are currently working for oil industry giants Shell, on one of their oil rigs.

Simian International delivers training to scaffolders all around the world and we were heavily involved in the development of the CISRS Overseas Scaffolder training programme which is now established as the recognised training programmes for scaffolders worldwide.

International Scaffolder Training in Nigeria

Sacub delivered the Level 3 International Scaffolder training to the group from Shell. The five-day course provides attendees with the knowledge and skills to enable them to erect, alter and dismantle scaffolding structures of an intermediate complexity in traditional tube and fitting and common system scaffolds. It also covers topics such as international best practice, international performance standards and local legal requirements.

During his time in Nigeria he also delivered two International Basic Scaffold Inspection courses. The three day course is aimed at individuals who are required to carry out safety inspections for basic access, working and special scaffolds.

The courses proved very popular and were attended by local government officials as well as delegates from a number of different Nigerian companies who are involved in oil or construction industries.

Following his time in Nigeria, Sacub said, “It’s great to travel overseas and see the different cultures in which international trainees operate. The Overseas Scaffolder training programme is a massive improvement on the previous training provided and on a personal level it’s fantastic to be making a difference to the safety of those involved in scaffolding in other parts of the world.”
