CSCS CARD THE TRUTH

You usually need to have achieved an N/SVQ to be eligible for a CSCS card. However, there are other routes into the Scheme such as the trainee and experienced worker cards for people who are working towards their N/SVQ, industry accreditation, professional membership or visitor cards.

Question: What CSCS Card Do Floorlayers Require?

Answer: All Floorlayers Require An "Experienced Worker" Card

 

CSCS CARD
Who qualifies?
Trainee

Available to trainees registered for an N/SVQ level 2 through their college, training provider or employer.

The card is valid for three years.

It may also be possible to qualify via 'Industry Accreditation' which allows an employer to 'sign-off' operatives' skills in place of formal qualifications.
