About this programme
The slinger/signaller is part of the lifting team rather than a type of crane. This page is for an existing A40 cardholder arranging renewal CPD, with attention to the actual duties and endorsements recorded on the card.
🏗️ The Person Guiding the Load
NOCN defines the role around attaching and securing loads, communicating their movement and guiding them to an agreed destination. Slinging and signalling are related duties, but a person’s permitted scope depends on the relevant card details and competence. A40 should therefore be identified by role and endorsement, not by the crane used on the last job.
🔎 Choose the Correct Category
A36 Lorry Loader identifies a machine-operating category; it does not describe the same duty as A40. A lifting-equipment operator, a slinger/signaller and a person supervising a lift may be different team members. Holding one card entry should not be treated as evidence that every lifting role is covered.

💻 CPD Learning and Your Card
The NOCN renewal tool maps A40 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 Slinger/Signaller operating syllabus within renewal CPD.
🔑 Booking and Access
✓ 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.
⏱ Plan Your 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.
📋 Renewal Preparation
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.

Learning Outcomes
📘 The Person Guiding the Load
NOCN defines the role around attaching and securing loads, communicating their movement and guiding them to an agreed destination. Slinging and signalling are related duties, but a person’s permitted scope depends on the relevant card details and competence. A40 should therefore be identified by role and endorsement, not by the crane used on the last job.
These details are category background. The actual renewal syllabus is the current NOCN material assigned to your learning account.
💬 A Booking Decision in Practice
A slinger/signaller has recently worked with a lorry loader and is asked to arrange renewal. They select their A40 role and check the endorsement on the card instead of choosing the A36 machine page simply because that equipment was used on site.
🧭 Apply Your Renewal Learning
✓ Distinguish role-based renewal from the operator category of the lifting machine.
✓ Review the assigned Lifting and Lifting Equipment CPD in the context of your existing responsibilities.
✓ Keep the learning evidence and check the remaining CPCS renewal requirements.
Use your own training and authorised site procedures for practical work. A renewal page is not a machine operating manual.
Frequently Asked Questions
20 questions answered
A40 concerns the Slinger/Signaller role. The crane or other lifting-machine operator may hold a different category.
Slinging concerns attaching and securing a load with appropriate lifting accessories; signalling concerns communication about its movement. Practical duties must stay within your competence and authorised procedures.
Endorsements distinguish the scope of duties. Provide the relevant card details when asking about renewal rather than assuming A40 alone describes every task.
Not if the category you are renewing is your A40 slinger/signaller role. A36 is the separate Lorry Loader machine category.
This CPD booking does not award a different lifting role or competence category. Planning, supervision and slinging duties should not be treated as interchangeable.
No practical training or assessment is included in this online renewal page. Appropriate initial training and task-specific competence remain separate.
Do not assume it changes endorsements or authorisation. Check the separate requirements for any change in duties.
List all relevant card categories and endorsements when asking for a mapping check. A role and an equipment category may need different consideration even where learning overlaps.
No. Category test documents and the current shared renewal CPD are different resources. Follow the learning assigned by NOCN.
NOCN’s A40 category document is linked in the description. It provides role context rather than a promise of a separate A40-only CPD syllabus.
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 A40 Slinger/Signaller 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.

Why This Programme

A36 Lorry Loader identifies a machine-operating category; it does not describe the same duty as A40. A lifting-equipment operator, a slinger/signaller and a person supervising a lift may be different team members. Holding one card entry should not be treated as evidence that every lifting role is covered.
✓ Make the booking against the formal card entry.
✓ Use the related-category links to resolve a similar machine name.
✓ Ask for a mapping check if several categories need renewal.
✓ Study the external NOCN material at your own pace.
This page supports an existing cardholder’s continuing development; it does not award initial practical competence.
Certificate of Completion
Follow NOCN’s current instructions for your CPD completion record. Keep it with your A40 renewal paperwork and check the separate CPCS application requirements. TrainifyHUB does not issue a substitute competence card or promise automatic renewal.
