CPCS A40A Slinger Signaller All Duties (Novice) in Wisbech, Cambridgeshire (Classroom)

CPCS A40A Slinger Signaller All Duties (Novice) in Wisbech, Cambridgeshire

This four-day novice course gives foundation training and assessment in slinging and signalling, leading to the CPCS A40A technical test for all types and all duties. It qualifies you to work as a slinger signaller or slinger banksman.

The novice route is the right choice if you have some, limited or no experience. Experienced operatives wanting to iron out bad habits before testing can take the two-day refresher, and anyone converting a recent qualification from another scheme should look at the test-only option.

The centre also offers the A40B static duties and A40D excavator 180/360 categories on request.
