IRATA Industrial Rope Access
IRATA International has a formal training and certification scheme and grading structure, and all IRATA International members are obliged to use this scheme. Rope access technicians are grouped into three technical grades, depending upon their experience and level of assessment as set out in the IRATA International publication Training and Assessment Certification Scheme for certification of personnel engaged in rope access methods.
The three technical grades are:

IRATA Level 2
This is an experienced rope access technician who has Level 1 skills plus more complex rigging, rescue and rope access skills, under the supervision of a Level 3.
