Aims and Objectives
The 2 day CISRS Skills Assessment (advanced) is designed to assess that the candidate can demonstrate the skills learnt during the CISRS advanced course, i.e. safely erect, alter and dismantle advanced scaffolding structures in line with the objectives approved by CISRS.
Please note that we will invite either 3 or 6 candidates to attend the 2 day CISRS Skills Assessment at a time, as it is a requirement of CISRS that candidates carry out their assessment in gangs of 3.
By the end of the course successful candidates will have demonstrated their competency in the safe erection, alteration and dismantling of advanced scaffold structures covered in the CISRS advanced scaffolding course.
Pre-Requisites
Candidates must be holders of a current CISRS Scaffolder card for a minimum period of 12 months, have then successfully completed a CISRS Advanced scaffolding course and be able to provide evidence of this in the form of certificates (unless they were completed at LTC Training Services in which case we will have a copy on file). Candidates must have the minimum 6 months further scaffold experience (with no exemptions) and have completed their NVQ Level 3, before attending their CISRS 2 day Skills Assessment.

It is a requirement that training providers make CISRS Card applications on completion of skills tests. All candidates should ideally have an in-date CITB Health, Safety & Environment touchscreen test in place (or exemption) when attending the course to ensure prompt card application. If not please ensure that this is forwarded to us as and when completed and we will make the card application at that time.
It is now a mandatory requirement by NOCN, who process CISRS card applications, that training providers provide a copy of the candidates pass Score Report and/or CITB Testing ID, which can be found on the pass score report or confirmation of test appointment email/text message.
