Eric Porter, experienced independent rigger, trainer, adviser and committee member for the PLASA National Rigging Certificate, led the two-day course. A structure was built in the studio area that allowed delegates to carry out working at height training, truss building, motor flying and rigging exercises, with a separate classroom area for theory work.
The course included an evening out allowing people attending the course to get together and enjoy a meal alongside staff from A.C. Rigging and Litestructures.
Jay Bridges, technical manager - produced, for the Derby LIVE group of venues, commented, "I was looking for a formalised training course covering rigging and the use of truss, so I contacted AC-ET's rigging department. It just so happened the course they were organising suited my needs exactly. Knowing AC-ET had arranged it, coupled with Eric Porter's unparalleled knowledge and skills, I knew it would be an excellent course and above all very useful."
