Applying for CSCS cards
All applications are made via CSCS Online. Employers, Training Providers and Third Parties must ensure they apply for cards using the correct account type.
Before starting an individual application:
- Use Card Finder to find the right type of card for your construction industry occupation, and level of experience. If you don’t hold the correct card it may result in you being refused entry to a construction site. To start the application process you should have the relevant training and experience within construction for the job role you are applying for.
- Have a scanned copy of your qualification certificate, or proof of registration to complete a qualification, or proof of professional body membership.
- Pass the appropriate level of the CITB Health, safety and environment test within the last two years. Have the test ID number from the top of the pass certificate ready.
