Construction Skills Certification Scheme

Icon has been working with the Construction Industry Training Body (CITB) to ensure that members of Icon are able to access CSCS cards. The type of card which is appropriate will vary depending on the experience of the individual and the type of membership they hold. 

CSCS is fully managed by CITB and issues should first be directed towards them.
