Course Description:


The Construction Plant Competence Scheme (CPCS) is a card scheme designed to prove the skills of plant operators.

As a CITB approved CPCS Test Centre we offer a novice course for those with no experience at our specialised CPCS test centre. On the last day of this course the Technical Tests - Practical & Theory - are undertaken and upon successful completion you will be awarded with a CPCS Red Trained Operators Card.

We also offer just the Tests - Practical & Theory (2 hours) - for experienced workers, again undertaken at our CPCS test centre.

Requirements for Test 

A valid Health & Safety Touchscreen Test (within last 2 years) & relevant practical experience (or undertaken our Novice Course) and theory knowledge (Revision Material handed out at booking).
