CSCS Card Test Prep

Features
Read full description

Pass the CSCS card test first time. Practise with original questions written for the CITB Health, Safety & Environment test — timed mocks, instant explanations, and a readiness score that tells you when you're safe to sit it. Built for labourers, apprentices and tradespeople who need their card and need it now. Works fully offline, in English, Polish and Romanian. WHAT'S COVERED Every topic on the operatives HS&E syllabus: legal duties and site induction, PPE, working at height, manual handling, fire and emergency, hazardous substances, electrical safety and plant, and health and welfare. Every question is written in plain English to the publicly documented syllabus, with an explanation that teaches the why — not just the right letter. BEHAVIOURAL CASE STUDIES The real test opens with situational judgment: a scenario unfolds and you pick the safest action at each step. Fifteen original case studies train that judgment before test day, so the format never surprises you. TIMED MOCK EXAMS IN THE REAL FORMAT Sit full mock exams that mirror the real test: 50 questions, 45 minutes, scored against the real pass mark. Questions are drawn across all topics in the same proportions as the real exam, so no mock leaves a blind spot. When the clock runs out, you see your result instantly — just like on test day. SIGN SCHOOL — FREE FOR EVERYONE Prohibition, warning, mandatory, safe condition and fire. Learn every sign you'll meet on site, then quiz yourself until they're automatic. Free, because safer sites are the point. WEAK-SPOT REVIEW & READINESS SCORE The app tracks every answer and shows you exactly which topics are costing you marks. Missed questions come back for review until you get them right, and a single readiness score tells you honestly whether you would pass today. No guesswork the night before — you'll know when you're ready. LISTEN MODE Questions and answers read aloud for the drive to site or the walk to the station. Play, pause, skip — revision that fits a working day. WORKS EVERYWHERE, FULLY OFFLINE Everything is on your phone: no signal needed, no account, no sign-up. Revise in the site cabin, on the train, or anywhere else your test prep has to happen. Progress syncs between your iPhone and iPad through your own iCloud. IN YOUR LANGUAGE The full question bank in English, Polish (Polski) and Romanian (RomÒnă) — switch any time in Settings. FREE TO TRY, ONE PRICE TO UNLOCK Start free with daily practice and Sign School. One single purchase then unlocks unlimited mock exams, weak-spot review and all case studies — no subscription, no recurring charges, yours for good. Independent revision aid — not affiliated with or endorsed by CITB or CSCS. Our questions are original practice material, not real test questions. Book your actual test through the official test provider. Questions or feedback? Contact support from the app's settings screen — we read everything.
