How do I apply for a Skilled Worker Licence?
You can apply via the CSCS website for a cost of £30.00. Once you have submitted the application and paid, CSCS will post your card the next working day.
CITB's Health, Safety and Environment Test
As part of your CSCS Card application, you will also need to pass CITB’s Health, Safety & Environment test. This is conducted at external test centres which will need to be booked on the CITB Website.
Renewal
To renew your Blue CSCS Card, you will need to refresh the qualifications you used to obtain the card. This is to ensure that your knowledge is current and you are up-to-date with any changes in the law. Therefore, renewing your CSCS Card will cost you the same as a new one: £30.
Refresher Training
You can take refresher courses or training at any time. Certificates or qualifications are valid for a period of 2-3 years from the date of completion. You can apply for your CSCS Card during this period.
