What moves the price
- Which course
- Low Level Access is a shorter course for podiums and low platforms; Towers for Users is a full day; the combined course puts both in one day.
- At a centre or on your site
- Groups are often trained at their own premises on their own towers, priced per day rather than per person.
- Booking online
- Nationwide Platforms prints an online price and a higher list price: £170 against £185 for Towers for Users.
- VAT
- Most centres quote excluding VAT, so a £155 course costs £186 to a buyer who cannot reclaim it.
