Foreign rigging qualifications

Recommended Posts

HH,

The profile options for 'rigging qualifications' are limited to the US 'Senior' and 'Master' rigger.

The qualifications however to undertake in particular 'reserve' packing in both Oz and UK differ - Oz have a 'Packer A' and the UK have the 'Advanced Packer'; Oz then only have one 'Rigger' qualification and the UK have the basic and advanced rigger.

I hold a Packer A - the closest equivelent in the profile is senior rigger - but that is misleading, as Packer A qualification is for 'reserve packing' and 'daily maintenance' - and not patching, sewing etc that a Senior Rigger can undertake.

In fact I left this option blank until I wanted to ask questions on reserve packing in the forums - and doubtless if I had not selected this as the 'closest alternative' I would have been besieged by demands as as to why I was opening a reserve container without a rigger rating!

Is it possible therefore, to add another option "Foreign Equivlent" with a space to type in the level of qualification?

eg. "Foreign Equivelent" then "APF Packer A"

Cheers
Tim

Hi Tim,

With all the counrties and their various certifications, I wouldnt want to be the one managing the data... think of the various coach, instructor and rigging ratings....

I just put my qualification in my other hobbies line.
