CPCS Blue Card Package
A valid Blue CPCS Card keeps you legally compliant and accepted on UK construction sites without interruption to your employment.The CPCS Blue Card is administered under NOCN Job Cards and is the most widely demanded proof of plant operator competence by principal contractors.
The CPCS Blue Competent Operator Card is the industry-standard certification for plant machinery operators working on UK construction sites.

What do I need to renew my Blue CPCS Card?
You need a valid CITB Health, Safety and Environment Test (within 2 years), the CPCS Renewal CPD for each category you hold, and evidence of ongoing operating experience.
What is the CPCS Renewal CPD?
From August 2024, the old CPCS Renewal Test was replaced by the Renewal CPD — an e-learning course completed online via the NOCN Hub on your phone or laptop, with no minimum pass mark.
