Course Overview
What is this course
Efficient lifting operations rely on skilled professionals who can communicate effectively, handle loads safely, and coordinate every stage of the lifting process. The ProQual Accredited Combined Certificate in Banksman, Slinger and Rigger is designed to provide learners with a comprehensive understanding of the essential roles involved in safe lifting operations, combining the key responsibilities of a Banksman, Slinger, and Rigger into one integrated training programme.
This high-quality, non-regulated CPD programme equips learners with the practical knowledge and technical awareness needed to support lifting activities across construction, engineering, manufacturing, offshore, logistics, and other industrial sectors. Throughout the course, learners explore topics including lifting principles, load assessment, sling selection, rigging equipment, hand and radio signalling, directing crane movements, hazard identification, risk assessment, inspection of lifting accessories, communication during lifting operations, and safe working practices.
By combining these three critical disciplines into a single programme, learners gain a broader understanding of how lifting teams work together to plan, coordinate, and execute lifting operations safely and efficiently. Practical workplace scenarios and industry-based examples help participants develop the confidence to communicate effectively, minimise operational risks, and contribute to a strong workplace safety culture.
Suitable for construction workers, riggers, slingers, banksmen, crane assistants, maintenance personnel, engineering technicians, offshore workers, logistics professionals, and anyone involved in lifting and material handling operations, this internationally delivered CPD programme supports professional skills development and workforce upskilling. The programme is externally accredited by ProQual for quality and consistency and is recognised by employers and industry bodies for professional development purposes, helping learners strengthen their competence across multiple lifting roles and enhance operational safety in the workplace.
