Personnel lifts are versatile and lightweight vehicles that help workers reach heights up to 25 ft. safely and efficiently without the need for ladders or scaffolding. Indoor construction sites, factories, warehouses, and commercial buildings use these lifts to perform tasks at height, such as maintenance, renovations, and stock picking.
Background Primer & Activities:
An overview provides participants with context and helps identify different types of lifts, related parts, safety concerns, tipping lines, fall protection requirements, and the basics of a walk-around inspection. Then, participants engage in a sort-and-match activity to learn the central controls and steps required for starting up. Embedded learning outcomes based on Bloom’s revised taxonomy include remembering, understanding, and applying.
Participant Simulation:
The interactive and manipulative simulation allows participants to explore, learn, and practice safely operating a personnel lift in a safe and realistic format. Before beginning their tasks, participants must don personal protective equipment (PPE) and conduct a thorough walk-around inspection of the lift. They must then navigate through the warehouse, collecting task items and repairing them at heights ranging from 5 to 25 feet.
Benefits & Key Features:
• Manipulative Simulation: Hands-on practice in a risk-free environment.
• Instant Feedback: “correct" or "try again" responses guide participants to reassess their choices with the option to revisit any part of the simulation as needed.
• Transferable skills can be directly applied to real-world scenarios.
• Realistic 3D tools, equipment, and environments.
