Does anyone have a relative who can say what's involved in the test to obtain one ??
DS has a chance to start as a sparkies mate. But the guy is desperate and wants DS to take test asap preferably tomorrow !! DS has no experience of building sites and doesn't even know what the test will ask.

Have a search online, nana I had a quick Google and there were lots of hits for it.

Hmm thanks. I thought DS had done this but maybe not as thoroughly as he could.

How about this one, builderstest.com/ ? It has mock tests.

nina it's some years since I was involved in the construction/engineering industry but I think your son needs the 'Trainee Card' - there are many different levels.

Card

It seems he has to have done at least the CITB's one-day H&S course before he can apply for his first card.
