NPORS Training: Meeting the Red Trained Operator Card Standards

Much like the revered red CPCS ‘Trained Operator card,’ our NPORS card for Hoist Operators mandates that candidates undergo a CITB or NPORS HS&E Operatives (CSCS) test. This comprehensive evaluation ensures your readiness for the industry and paves the way for both theory and practical NPORS tests.

CSCS Test Update Reminder

It’s essential to keep in mind that your existing CSCS card may still be valid, but the associated test might be older than two years. In such cases, it’s necessary to retake the CSCS test to maintain compliance with current industry requirements. We’re pleased to offer CSCS tests at our center to assist you in meeting this criterion.
