I recently (Sept 21) attended a 3 day scaffold course here. The centre is well organised with friendly staff and a professional team of instructors who made sure that you have sufficient knowledge to pass the tests.Lunch was provided by "Posh Nosh" and was also very good.The only thing to be aware of is the parking situation. If the centre is busy the car park can fill up quickly meaning that you may have to park some distance away due to DPD taking up most spaces with their fleet of vans so get there early to avoid any hassle.

I recently completed the Basic Scaffold Inspector 3-day course at Safety & Access Ltd. From initial contact to the end of the course, everything was handled smoothly and professionally.I'd recommend the course to anyone who has scaffold structures up on site - it's informative with comprehensive detail about materials, fittings, ties & inspection procedures. Many thanks to instructor Andy Ferguson, an ex scaffolder who really knows his stuff.

What is the CISRS CPD Refresher course?

The CISRS CPD Refresher course is a 2-day training course that scaffolders must complete to renew their CISRS Scaffolder (Blue) card or CISRS Advanced Scaffolder (Gold) card every 5 years. The course updates scaffolders on current legislation, safety guidance, and industry best practice.

Who needs to take the CISRS CPD Refresher course?

The CISRS CPD Refresher course is for:

  • CISRS Scaffolder (Blue card) holders
  • CISRS Advanced Scaffolder (Gold card) holders
  • Scaffolders whose CISRS card is due to expire
  • Scaffolders whose card has expired within the last 6 months

This course is required to renew your CISRS card.

How long is the CISRS CPD Refresher course?

The CISRS CPD Refresher course lasts 2 days and includes classroom learning, practical training and assessments.

What does the CISRS CPD course cover?

The CISRS CPD course covers updates to industry guidance and practical skills, including:

  • Risk assessments and method statements (RAMS)
  • Manual handling

  • Working at height safety
  • Accident reporting and industry changes
  • Health, safety and behavioural test

The course ensures scaffolders are up to date with current industry standards and legislation.

When should I take the CISRS CPD Refresher course?

You can take the CISRS CPD course up to 6 months before your CISRS card expires, or after it has expired (within a certain timeframe), to renew your card for another 5 years.

Do I need to take a CITB Health & Safety test to renew my CISRS card?

The CISRS CPD Refresher course includes a health, safety and behavioural test, so you may not need to take a separate CITB Health & Safety test if you pass this test during the course.

What do I get after completing the CISRS CPD course?

After successfully completing the CISRS CPD Refresher course:

  • Your CISRS card can be renewed for another 5 years
  • You may receive additional endorsements such as:

  • Gloves
  • High visibility vest
  • Photo ID
  • Basic tools (tape measure and level may be required)

PPE is required for practical training elements.

What happens if my CISRS card expires?

Where can I take the CISRS CPD Refresher course?

You can complete the CISRS CPD Refresher course at accredited CISRS training centres such as Safety & Access in:

  • Nottingham
