It is ideal for anyone wishing to apply for the Construction Skills Certificate Scheme (CSCS) Labourer Card (Green Card), necessary for work on a UK construction site.

The training is exceptionally easy to understand and administer.

The Labourer Card qualification was developed in partnership with the Construction Industry Training Board (CITB).

This makes it difficult for contractors to use CSCS cards as a reliable method of checking that site workers have the appropriate skills to work on construction sites safely and effectively.
