Summarizing Construction Skills Certification Scheme

The construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS) is one of the most used skills certification schemes in the UK construction sector. The CSCS cards serve as verification that those working on construction sites have received the necessary training and credentials for the job.

CSCS assists in maintaining a database of construction workers who have earned. Or for those who are working toward earning a recognized construction-related certification.
