The following information is supplied in the interest of operator knowledge.

CONSTRUCTION PLANT CERTIFICATION SCHEME (CPCS)

 The CPCS card scheme has been introduced to ensure that operators wishing to work on MCG (major contractor group) sites will only be allowed on site if they are in possession of a valid CPCS card for the work they are to undertake and for the machine they will be operating.

 The cards are designed to provide proof to employers that the holder has the skills, Health and Safety knowledge and practical experience to undertake the work competently.

 The CPCS cards come in a range of colours dependant on the status of the cardholder. For example a red card shows the card holder has passed a CPCS operators test and has passed the CITB health and safety touch screen test, and is working towards the required National Vocational Qualification (NVQ). This red card is valid for 3 years and cannot be renewed. The candidate is also required to log a minimum of 300hours-machine operation.

A blue card is confirmation that the cardholder has successfully achieved the National Vocational Qualification at level 2 or above in a specific discipline. 

NVQ Level 2 Specialised Plant and Machinery Operations
 
To obtain a blue CPCS card operators are required to achieve an NVQ level 2 within 3 years of obtaining their red card. This is a work-based qualification assessed by providing evidence of competence in the form of a portfolio, which has to be witnessed, assessed and validated.

 There are 4 units in the VQ, 2 are health and safety orientated units and 2 are observations of performance.

 Prior to enrolling on the NVQ, candidates are required to pass the CPCS operator test and the CITB health and safety touch screen test.

Further CPCS information can be found at......

Dear Harold
Thank you for your enquiry - the minimum age for training in Plant is 17, and a qualification would only be issued to an 18 year old person. If you wanted to go the experienced worker route, you would need to be 21 years old.
Should you require any further information, please contact our bookings number on 08457 33 6666.

Yours sincerely,
Dawn Nash
