CPCS Tower Crane A04 Training Course

If you’re looking for a rewarding and dynamic role in the construction industry, operating a tower crane could be just the opportunity you need. At Construction and Plant Training Services, we offer the CPCS Tower Crane A04 Training Course designed to equip you with the knowledge, hands-on skills, and confidence to work on a wide range of construction projects across the UK.

Many of our previous learners started with little to no experience and have since progressed to roles on major building sites—just like Michael, who joined us last year. After completing his training and receiving the official CPCS A04 certificate, he landed a job on a large-scale development project in Manchester, where he’s now a key member of the site’s lifting team.
