The CPCS Hoist training course (A20) is aimed at those who operate a Hoist in a construction environment, and is only applicable for candidates who have passed the CSCS Health, Safety and Environment touchscreen test for Operatives within the past two years.

If you are a Private Individual looking to undertake CPCS Hoist Operator training, the implications are very different from those of a CITB registered construction company. It is recommended that you click on the following link with information on CPCS Training and the Private Individual, before making a specific enquiry relating to this course.
There are both Foundation and Experienced Worker CPCS courses available for these different endorsements; Experienced Worker training courses are only for operators with 2 or more years’ recent experience.
Successful delegates will gain the CPCS red card (trained operator) for the Hoist category, which is valid for 2 years. Candidates who hold the this CPCS card can then apply to complete the NVQ in Plant Operations to secure a Blue Competence CPCS Card.
