Steps
Confirm a trainee holds a CISRS Labourer Card for at least 3 months before attending CISRS Part 1 training.
Complete the CISRS Part 1 programme covering foundational scaffolding skills.
Complete CISRS Part 2 and the associated NVQ Level 2, followed by a 1-day skills test, to become eligible for a CISRS Scaffolder Card.
Track the Scaffolder Card's validity period and complete the CISRS CPD/refresher course before it lapses to renew.
For system scaffolding specifically, check the current system-only Part 1/Part 2 training pathway, since CISRS has been expanding parallel tracks for system (as opposed to tube-and-fitting) scaffolding.
Check CISRS's current reform announcements before relying on older course structures, since CISRS has proposed multi-stage changes to align with a global training baseline.
Known gotchas
CISRS has announced a multi-stage reform program affecting system-scaffolding course structure and possibly labourer-standard alignment with international schemes -- confirm the current course structure directly with CISRS rather than assuming the historical Part 1/Part 2/NVQ structure is unchanged.
CISRS is a UK industry training scheme, not a government regulatory requirement in the way OSHA rules are in the US -- treat card requirements as employer/industry-driven rather than statutory unless verified otherwise.
