Our rope access courses run from 8:00 am to 5:00 pm
Monday thru Friday
We are the largest dedicated rope access training facility in America. Our 3000 square foot purpose-built training facility is in Oakland, NJ. With over 4000 feet of rope in service and 30 ft. ceiling height, we can better accommodate our students with increased hands-on time. Our new, extra large 16 ft. high roof simulation platform will provide excellent rooftop simulation experience. This is the largest and best equipped SPRAT certified rope access training facility in the United States. In addition, we are the only IACET accredited rope access training provider in the eastern U.S.
AxcessRescue specializes in needs based, SPRAT certified rope access training. We provide training to those whose work varies from low angle to complex high angle situations. We believe the level of training required should be based upon the type of work being done. Safety is the number one goal of work on rope and we strive to instill safe work and rescue practices in our students.
We prepare students for SPRAT Level I, Level II, or Level III certification. Our rope access courses are concluded with a complete SPRAT evaluation session that provides internationally recognized certification. This includes the SPRAT written, oral, and practical skills test. The cost of the SPRAT evaluation session is included in our course fees.
Our rope access courses exceed the following standards:
• SPRAT (Society of Professional Rope Access Technicians)
• ISO 22846 standards
• ANSI Z490.1 adult training criteria
• ANSI A10.32 fall protection
• Z359.2 managed fall protection programs
• 2017 OSHA Walking-Working Surfaces regulations
Our east coast training center is the premier, purpose-built facilities of its kind. It provides unparalleled training opportunities that maximize student hands-on time and skill retention.
• Over 4000 feet of rope in service
• 30 ft. ceiling height
• Air conditioned classroom
• True fall protection equipment use
• Realistic training props including towers, scaffolds, ladders, and elevated platforms

• Instructors with unequalled breadth of knowledge
For our standard length (4 days + evaluation) rope access courses, we provide 3.8 CEUs (continuing education units) to those that pass the course. The CEUs are provided through our issuance of an AxcessRescue certificate. This is not part of the SPRAT certification.
