A tower-crane renewal request should identify the operator's category and relevant endorsement, not simply the fact that lifting takes place at height. This page is for an existing A04 cardholder arranging the appropriate online CPD.
NOCN's category background describes a tower structure, hoist ropes and a hook block, with different control and crane configurations addressed through category details. That context makes a tower crane distinct from access platforms and from cranes based on tracked or road-going carriers.
A02 Crawler Crane is a separate machine category. A20 Hoist transports a guided platform or cage between landing levels, while A40 concerns the Slinger/Signaller role. Similar construction-site surroundings do not make these renewal bookings equivalent.
Related category pages: A02 Crawler Crane above 10 tonne · A20 Hoist · A40 Slinger Signaller.
The current NOCN tool maps A04 to Lifting and Lifting Equipment. Study the assigned material online at your own pace. NOCN uses shared renewal modules; the equipment background here does not promise a separate machine-only syllabus.
✓ TrainifyHUB category booking fee: £75.
✓ After purchase, contact hello@slbrothers.co.uk with your reference and relevant card codes.
✓ We check the booking and arrange external enrolment manually.
✓ Follow the individual access instructions supplied.
Approximately 2 hours is a planning estimate, not an official minimum or a scheduled class. Your pace, review needs and NOCN’s current material affect actual time.
Retain the learning evidence supplied by NOCN and check the separate current card-renewal requirements. CPD does not automatically renew your card or award new practical competence.

NOCN's category background describes a tower structure, hoist ropes and a hook block, with different control and crane configurations addressed through category details. That context makes a tower crane distinct from access platforms and from cranes based on tracked or road-going carriers.
These details explain the category. The actual current NOCN renewal material governs what you study.
A tower-crane operator is given a list of general lifting courses. They confirm A04 and the applicable card details before arranging renewal, instead of choosing the hoist page because both serve work on a tall building.
✓ Review current lifting CPD in the context of your existing crane work.
✓ Check additional crane categories and possible shared learning.
✓ Keep completion evidence for the separate renewal application.
Use your training and authorised workplace procedures for practical tasks; this page is not an operating manual.

It helps identify the applicable card scope and configuration rather than assuming every tower-crane duty is identical.

Lifting and Lifting Equipment is the current mapping.
The linked NOCN A04 document explains category context, separate from the current renewal learning.
Provide your booking reference and the category codes you need to renew. Explain if the card description or the machine used at work appears different, so the category can be checked before enrolment.
It is online self-paced learning, not a scheduled classroom session. Arrange a suitable period to concentrate and follow the external platform’s access instructions.
Use approximately 2 hours for planning. It is not an official minimum or a guaranteed finish time; pace, review needs and the available content affect duration.
£75 for this category booking. Confirm separate renewal applications, additional services and any other charges before purchase.
Enrolment is arranged manually. Contact hello@slbrothers.co.uk after purchase and follow the individual instructions once your learning access has been set up.
NOCN’s current route uses renewal CPD in place of the old renewal tests. Follow the current learning requirements and in-course questions rather than relying on an old test format.
No. Retain your completion evidence and meet the remaining current CPCS requirements through the separate renewal process.
NOCN’s A04 Tower Crane support page provides its category documents. The link in the course description helps you distinguish category assessment material from renewal CPD.
No. Evidence of CPD does not by itself establish practical competence or authorise operation of equipment on a site.
Email hello@slbrothers.co.uk before purchasing if your card code, category description or overlapping renewal learning is unclear.
✓ Identify A04 and the relevant tower-crane card details when booking.
✓ Distinguish tower-crane operation from hoist transport and other lifting-team duties.
✓ Review current lifting CPD in the context of your existing crane work.
✓ Check additional crane categories and possible shared learning.
✓ Keep completion evidence for the separate renewal application.
A booking for an existing Tower Crane cardholder should be based on the formal category, not a similar-looking machine or a broad site job title. A02 Crawler Crane is a separate machine category. A20 Hoist transports a guided platform or cage between landing levels, while A40 concerns the Slinger/Signaller role. Similar construction-site surroundings do not make these renewal bookings equivalent.
✓ Confirm the precise card entry before enrolment.
✓ Use the related pages to resolve similar names.
✓ Ask for a mapping check when several categories need renewal.
✓ Plan independent learning around your commitments.
Keep the evidence supplied through the NOCN learning route with your A04 renewal records. Follow current provider instructions and the separate CPCS application process. TrainifyHUB does not issue a replacement competence card or promise automatic renewal.
