CITB CSCS Card Touch Screen Test

Sit your CSCS test at a date and time convenient to you, at our easily accessible test centre in Leicestershire. With free on-site parking, we will provide you with a comfortable, out of town environment to sit your test hassle-free. Without this card you cannot undertake work on most construction sites. Your card acts as proof of identity and demonstrates your competence in performing the job in a safe manner. Based on your job role and qualification you may apply for different tests and cards.

Description

To apply for your CSCS card you must have the appropriate construction-related qualifications and training and you must pass our relevant CITB Health Safety and Environment test within the previous two years. If you are unsure what test you require for your trade or position, please give our experienced team a call to discuss.

Your CSCS test will contain 50 questions in the time limit of 45 minutes. Please remember that you will need to bring ID with you (this will be detailed in your joining instructions), otherwise you cannot continue with the test.

Use this page to book to sit the test alone. If you would like to combine your test with our 1 day CITB Health and Safety Awareness course, on the same day, visit this page.
