      Hi Justin,
      CSCS don't offer or provide tests or qualifications, the prices of which can vary from provider to provider. We simply issue CSCS cards off the back of approved applications.
      Currently, all CSCS cards cost £36 or are free in the case of the Apprentice card, while CITB Health, Safety and Environment tests are £22.50.
      Thanks

      Hi there,
      Holding a CSCS card is not a legal requirement and it is entirely up to the principal contractor or client whether workers are required to hold a valid card before they are allowed on site.
      However, most principal contractors and major house builders require workers on their sites to hold a valid CSCS card.
      Thanks
