CSCS Green Card Package
Everything the CSCS Green Labourer card requires, in one package: the Level 1 Health and Safety in a Construction Environment qualification with its exam, the online test preparation course and mock, and your CITB touch screen test booked at your nearest Pearson Vue centre.
About this test
Both requirements for your Green card, in one place
The CSCS Green Labourer card has two requirements, and most people only discover the second one after they have paid for the first. You need the Level 1 Award in Health and Safety in a Construction Environment, and you need a pass in the CITB Health, Safety and Environment Test for Operatives. Buy them separately and you are dealing with two providers, two payments and two sets of paperwork.
This package covers both. Your Level 1 course opens online as soon as you order, with its exam included. Your touch screen test preparation course and 50 question mock exam open at the same time. When you are ready, we book your CITB test at your nearest Pearson Vue test centre and your result is printed the same day. With both in hand you can apply to CSCS for your Green card.
Just need the touch screen test on its own? Book the CITB Operatives test for £50. Not sure which card you need? Read our guide to CSCS cards.

Pricing & the small print

What your £149 is made of
ID you must bring on test day
National Compliance Training is an independent training provider and third party booking agent. We are not CITB and we are not part of CITB or CSCS. The CITB Health, Safety and Environment Test is a CITB product, delivered at Pearson Vue test centres, and the same test can be booked directly with CITB for the test fee alone. Our price includes the CITB test fee plus the Level 1 qualification course and exam, your test preparation, and our booking service. Passing the test depends on your performance on the day, and no preparation product can guarantee a pass. Tests can be rescheduled free of charge with sufficient notice, normally at least 72 hours before your appointment. Missed appointments and ID failures forfeit the CITB test fee.
