IPAF PAL Cards Go Digital!
From 1st June, all candidates who successfully complete their IPAF training will receive their licence, logbook, and safety guide digitally through the IPAF app straight to their phone rather than receiving a physical version as previously issued.
All IPAF documents including their licence will be accessible through ePAL which is free to download on all IOS and android devices.
