As a CITB approved CPCS Test Centre we offer a novice course for those with no experience at our specialised CPCS test centre in Bickenhill. On the last day of this course the Technical Tests - Practical & Theory - are undertaken and upon successful completion you will be awarded with a CPCS Red Trained Operators Card.
We also offer just the Tests - Practical & Theory (2 hours) - for experienced workers, again undertaken at our CPCS test centre in Bickenhill.
After receiving your CPCS Red Card you will then have 2 years to complete a level 2 NVQ after which you'll be issued with a CPCS Blue Competent Operators Card. We also offer the NVQ and can possibly provide funding.
