Frequently Asked Questions
How long is this certificate valid for?
This certificate is valid for 3 years. Some employers require recertification every 2 years – often due to the intensity of the work. Some new employers also sometimes require a new training despite an in-date pre-existing certificate.
Do I need to participate in the practical element of this course?
Participation in the practical element of this course is essential and non-negotiable.
Do you offer this course as an online training?
No, we do not. At MTI we put high value on in-person training and, in our experience an increasing amount of employers are not accepting online Manual Handling certificates.
