The ALLMI Slinger/Signaller course
content is very comprehensive
and so cardholders are
able use their skills when performing Slinger / Signaller duties
with any type 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 Ltd and
administered by the Instructor. It consists of two theoretical
assessments and one practical. The theoretical assessment consists
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 his / her 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 certificate and identity card 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 on 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.
