The Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS) was set up to help the construction industry to improve quality and reduce accidents. CSCS cards are increasingly demanded as proof of occupational competence by contractors, public and private clients and others. They cover hundreds of occupations so whatever you do in construction there will be a card that is suitable for you.

Traxsydes is an Invigilated Internet Based Testing centre approved by Construction Skills. Here we can give you advice on which card you need to have, test you and process your card application for you.

TYPES OF TEST
The type of card being applied for will determine the level of test that needs to be taken. Further information on this can be found in the Occupations section of the CSCS website.

AIM
The aim of the test is to examine knowledge across a wide range of health and safety topics in order to improve safety and productivity on site.
