A purpose-built trencher has a different equipment identity from a general excavator digging a trench. This A37 renewal page is for an existing Trencher cardholder arranging the appropriate NOCN professional-development learning.
NOCN describes a wheel- or chain-driven cutting unit and a conveyor for moving excavated material. That continuous cutting arrangement is useful category context. It does not turn this page into a trench-design, excavation-safety or operating procedure.
A10 and A12 identify 180-degree excavators in different weight bands, not the A37 trencher category. A19 Grader is another separate earthmoving entry. The word trench in a job description does not establish the equipment category.
Related category pages: A10 Excavator 180 below 5 tonnes · A12 Excavator 180 above 5 tonnes · A19 Grader.
The current NOCN tool maps A37 to Earth Moving and Compaction. Study the assigned CPD 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 categories.
✓ We check the category and arrange external enrolment manually.
✓ Follow the individual access instructions supplied.
Allow approximately 2 hours as a planning estimate. Your reading pace, review needs and NOCN’s current material affect actual time. This is not an official minimum or a scheduled class.
Keep the completion evidence provided by NOCN and check the separate current CPCS renewal requirements. CPD does not automatically renew your card or add practical competence.

NOCN describes a wheel- or chain-driven cutting unit and a conveyor for moving excavated material. That continuous cutting arrangement is useful category context. It does not turn this page into a trench-design, excavation-safety or operating procedure.
This is category context, not the detailed renewal syllabus. The actual current NOCN material determines what you study.
A cardholder searches for trenching renewal after working alongside a backhoe excavator. They check that their card states A37 rather than choosing an excavator page simply because both machines were used along the same trench route.
✓ Review assigned earthmoving CPD in relation to your existing trencher duties.
✓ Check additional equipment categories where machines work together on a project.
✓ Retain learning evidence for the remaining card-renewal process.
Use your training and authorised workplace procedures for practical tasks; this course page is not an operating manual.
20 questions answered
No. Identify the purpose-built trencher category and the actual card entry.
NOCN refers to wheel- or chain-driven cutting components and a system for moving excavated material.
A10 and A12 are separate 180-degree excavator entries; the task alone does not make them A37.
This booking is renewal CPD, not trench engineering or a site excavation plan.
No hands-on machine exercise is included in this online page.
Adding equipment competence is separate from renewal professional development.
Provide both codes for a current mapping check before buying multiple bookings.
Use the formal equipment category shown on the card.
The current mapping identifies Earth Moving and Compaction.
The linked NOCN A37 reference supplies equipment context; the actual renewal material is assigned by NOCN.
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 A37 Trencher 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.
✓ Recognise the purpose-built trencher category represented by A37.
✓ Distinguish continuous cutting equipment from an excavator performing a trenching task.
✓ Review assigned earthmoving CPD in relation to your existing trencher duties.
✓ Check additional equipment categories where machines work together on a project.
✓ Retain learning evidence for the remaining card-renewal process.
For an existing Trencher cardholder, a clear category check helps prevent a renewal booking based on an informal site term or a similar-looking machine. A10 and A12 identify 180-degree excavators in different weight bands, not the A37 trencher category. A19 Grader is another separate earthmoving entry. The word trench in a job description does not establish the equipment category.
✓ Start with the precise category and relevant details on your card.
✓ Use the related pages to resolve similar names before purchase.
✓ Ask about shared learning where several categories need renewal.
✓ Arrange independent study around your existing commitments.
Retain the evidence supplied through the NOCN learning route with your A37 renewal records. Follow the current provider instructions and the separate CPCS card-renewal process. TrainifyHUB does not issue a substitute competence card or promise automatic renewal.
