Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS)

The CSCS Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS) provides ‘skills identify cards’. On-site assessment increases the qualifications base of the workforce and ensures construction employers meet their qualification and quality targets. CSCS cards can be obtained through the Experienced Worker Route by gaining an NVQ level 2 or 3 (except for certain ex-apprentices). The Major Contractors Group is still committing itself to 100% registration on all MCG sites even though they missed the original target of achieving this by the end of 2003. There are currently over 600,000 workers registered with CSCS or an affiliated skillcard.
