The NPORS card that carries a CSCS logo proves that a candidate has taken the relevant CSCS test.

Like the red CPCS ‘Trained Operator card’, this NPORS card will require for a candidate to complete a CITB HS&E Operatives (CSCS) test prior to taking a theory and practical NPORS test.

Please be aware that your CSCS card may still be valid but your test may be older than two years! In this case, you will need to take a CSCS test.

We do conduct CSCS tests at our center as well.
