A side loader carries out a different handling role from a front-masted forklift. For an existing A15 cardholder, renewal preparation should start with the side-loader entry, especially where a workplace uses the general term forklift for its whole fleet.
NOCN describes a side-mounted mast and a load bed with the mast centrally located. This side-handling arrangement is the useful category clue. The length or shape of a load alone is not enough to decide which forklift code belongs on a booking.
A16 Industrial Forklift Truck, A18 Reach Truck and A14 Rough Terrain Masted Forklift are separate entries. Experience moving similar materials with one truck does not make its category interchangeable with A15.
Compare the related pages: A16 Industrial Forklift Truck · A18 Reach Truck · A14 R.T.F.L./ Masted Truck.
The NOCN renewal tool maps A15 to Lifting and Lifting Equipment. NOCN uses shared modules across categories. The machine background here explains your booking; it is not a claim that the provider offers a separate Forklift Side Loader operating syllabus within renewal CPD.
✓ TrainifyHUB category booking: £75.
✓ Contact hello@slbrothers.co.uk after purchase with your reference and relevant card codes.
✓ Our team checks your category and arranges external enrolment manually.
✓ Follow the individual access instructions supplied for your online learning.
Approximately 2 hours is a planning estimate. Your pace, review needs and the NOCN material available when you enrol affect actual time. It is not an official minimum or a scheduled class.
Retain the completion evidence supplied through the learning platform and check all remaining CPCS renewal requirements. CPD does not itself renew a card, add categories or replace practical training.

NOCN describes a side-mounted mast and a load bed with the mast centrally located. This side-handling arrangement is the useful category clue. The length or shape of a load alone is not enough to decide which forklift code belongs on a booking.
These details are category background. The actual renewal syllabus is the current NOCN material assigned to your learning account.
A store operator handles long materials with a side loader but is offered a generic forklift renewal page. They compare the card’s A15 description with the truck type and request the category-specific booking instead of relying on the word forklift.
✓ Review the current lifting CPD in the context of your existing side-loader work.
✓ Check the renewal learning required for any additional truck categories.
✓ Keep evidence of completion alongside the remaining renewal paperwork.
Use your own training and authorised site procedures for practical work. A renewal page is not a machine operating manual.

A15 is the side-loader entry. Match it against the actual category on your card.
NOCN describes a side-mounted mast and load-bed arrangement, which helps distinguish it from a front-masted industrial forklift.
No. The machine and formal card category determine the booking, not the load shape alone.
A18 is Reach Truck. Check the exact card entry before selecting either page.
A16 is a separate category; do not assume that the shared word forklift makes it equivalent.
No hands-on truck training or practical assessment is included in this renewal CPD booking.

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.
