Delegates who achieve the CPCS theory or practical test will have the A59C category added to their existing CPCS red or blue card.
Upon successful achievement of your CPCS red trained operator category you should begin working towards the relevant NVQ to enable you to upgrade to a CPCS competent operator card before your red card expires. For more information, please contact us.
