The SEMA racking inspection course comprises an intensive three-day training course and both a written examination and practical assessment.

What Happens After?
Continuing Professional Development (CPD) is integral to the SEMA racking inspection course. The CPD substantiates this professional qualification and demonstrates a commitment to the industry in line with SEMA’s policies of quality and professionalism. It also assures users that inspectors maintain high standards.
Inspectors maintain their qualifications by achieving a minimum of 40 CPD points annually. Inspectors can accomplish this primarily by undertaking regular inspections as part of their daily tasks. Another key feature of the CPD program is attending the annual SARI Seminar dedicated to SEMA Approved Rack Inspectors, which significantly contributes to the CPD points system.
Qualification Upgrades
Upon successfully qualifying, the SEMA Approved Rack Inspector (SARI) may also attend the SARI Cantilever module, if required.
Annual Subscription
There is an annual subscription of £750 + VAT to maintain this professional qualification. This will be used to cover the annual SARI Seminar, management and administrative procedures, and a SEMA Web Site Listing.
