Experienced Allmi Slinger Signaller one day - 17th December 2022

The ALLMI Slinger / Signaller course content is extremely comprehensive and so cardholders are able to use their skills when performing Slinger / Signaller duties with other types of lifting equipment, not just lorry loaders. The Slinger / Signaller course consists of 13 modules (please click here for a list of course modules). The course duration is one day for experienced candidates and a minimum of two days for novice candidates.  A maximum of four candidates can attend a course.  Both courses culminate in a written and practical examination.

The assessment process is set by ALLMI and administered by the Instructor. It consists of two theoretical assessments and one practical. The theoretical assessments consist of a set of multiple choice and ‘open’ questions.  The practical assessment is designed to identify whether the candidate has the appropriate practical skills to perform their duties as a Slinger / Signaller safely and efficiently.

Upon successful completion of the course every candidate will receive an identity card and certificate, and will be registered on the ALLMI database. The identity card and certificate are valid for five years, after which time refresher training and assessments will need to be undertaken.  Candidates also receive the ALLMI Slinger / Signaller manual, which is used as a reference guide throughout their career.

The strength of ALLMI training comes from the technical and training knowledge of its Training Standards Committee. The Committee is made up of training and technical professionals from all the major loader crane manufacturers and importers within the UK. In addition, the Health and Safety Executive is represented.  The Committee develops, consults upon and maintains all the training standards set by ALLMI.
