West Yorkshire, UK - This year’s two-day AC-ET Rigging School has been hailed as another big success, quickly becoming fully booked and receiving positive feedback from all who attended.

The event was held on 7th - 8th June at the West Yorkshire in Wakefield.

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. Once again, this was another very professional service from Adam and his team at A.C. Rigging.”
