These new requirements were introduced in July 2014 state that along with the CITB Health, Safety and Environment (HS&E) Test, a QCF qualification (or alternative) must be achieved in order to apply for the Green Card. We offer Health and Safety in a Construction Environment Level 1. In addition to this learners must also complete the Health, Safety and Environment test prior to applying for their Green Labourer card. This course is for you if you are considering, or already, working within the construction and civil engineering industry.

For example, someone from Glasgow wouldn't be eligible for a programme taking place in North Ayrshire, and vice versa.
