Determine SPRAT/IRATA rope-access certification requirements for high-rise window-cleaning technicians

Steps

1. Confirm on sprat.org (or irata.org for the international body) the current certification levels (Level 1, 2, 3) and which level is required for the specific high-rise task being assigned.
2. Enroll technicians in an accredited SPRAT or IRATA training provider's course combining classroom instruction and hands-on evaluation, followed by a written and practical assessment by a certified evaluator.
3. Verify the technician's certification card is current and matches the level required for the job before assigning solo or lead-technician high-rise work.
4. Track each technician's renewal/recertification requirement individually and confirm the current renewal interval directly on sprat.org/irata.org rather than assuming a fixed cycle, since renewal cadence details found across sources are inconsistent and should be verified at the certifying body.
5. Coordinate rope-access work with the building's I-14.1-compliant anchor infrastructure and the BSC's fall-protection program so the two safety systems are consistent.
