128100 students enrolledGood course, however don't expect it to fully prepare you for a CITB exam, this is meant for starters, these are two separate qualifications .
I had a fantastic experience with Hurak and would highly recommend their service to anyone looking to complete their Level 1 Health and Safety in a Construction Environment qualification for the CSCS Green Labourer Card. A special thank you to Dhanush Kripalani for his outstanding help, professionalism, and kindness. He went above and beyond to assist me and made the whole process smooth and stress-free. Thanks to his support, I was able to get everything sorted sooner than expected, allowing me to move forward with my CSCS card application and start looking for work earlier. Dhanush was incredibly helpful, patient, and supportive throughout the process. It's rare to come across someone who genuinely cares about helping people achieve their goals, and I really appreciate the time and effort he put into helping me. Thank you again, Dhanush, and thank you to the entire Hurak team! Keep up the excellent work. I would definitely recommend Hurak to anyone looking for training and qualifications in the construction industry.

The CSCS Green Labourer Card is the industry-standard, entry-level pass for people working in labouring roles on UK construction sites. Issued by the Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS), this card proves to site managers that you have the essential health and safety knowledge required to work safely around common site hazards.
To apply for the Green Card, you normally need to meet the current CSCS requirements for the labourer route, which typically includes a recognised one-day health and safety qualification, like this one, and the relevant CITB Health, Safety and Environment (HS&E) touchscreen test. That’s why many learners look for a CSCS Green Card course or CSCS card course that covers everything they need in one place.
This mandatory 1-day training is designed to give you a foundational understanding of site safety. Whether you take this CSCS green card course online or in the classroom, you will learn how to identify common site hazards, understand manual handling techniques, and learn your legal responsibilities regarding health and safety at work.
To help you get site-ready quickly, we offer three flexible ways to complete your CSCS Green Card route training. Whether you want to study from home or learn in a classroom, you’ll cover the same core health and safety content and work towards the recognised certificate you need for the next step towards your Green Card.
Our most popular option. Study fully online at your own pace and fit the training around work and family commitments. You can pause and resume at any time, making it the most flexible way to complete the course.
Prefer a structured day with a tutor? Join a live online session delivered via Zoom or Microsoft Teams. You’ll get real-time teaching, the chance to ask questions, and support throughout the day, all from home.
If you prefer face-to-face learning, choose a classroom course at a centre near you. You’ll learn with a tutor, ask questions in person, and complete the course in a traditional classroom setting. Fast results are available to help you move to the next step quickly.
We know that everyone’s needs are different. Whether you just want the basic training or a completely done-for-you service with extra perks, choose the package that fits you best:

Under the latest CSCS rules, your first Green Labourer Card is valid for two years. Before this card expires, if you can provide evidence from your employer that you are still working in a labouring role, you can renew it for a full five years.
The mandatory health and safety training takes just one day to complete. Whether you choose our CSCS green card - 1 day course online, a live virtual session, or attend a classroom near you.

However, if you want the CITB test booking and card application handled for you as an all-in-one service with additional perks (like a free exam resit and bonus courses), the charge for our complete Premium package is £249.99.

If you submit your request today, the earliest available assessment slot will be two working days later.
