CSCS Health and Safety Course Guildford

CSCS Health and Safety Course Guildford

If you live in Guildford or the surrounding Surrey area and are looking to work in construction, one of the first steps you’ll need to take is completing a CSCS Health and Safety course. At MJ Training Solutions, we deliver a fully online, nationally recognised course that gives you everything you need to apply for your Green CSCS Labourers Card – essential for getting on-site and getting hired.

Delivered weekly via Microsoft Teams, our course is open to learners across the UK, but is particularly suited to jobseekers, labourers, and tradespeople in Guildford, Woking, Godalming, Farnham, Leatherhead, and across Surrey.

What Is the CSCS Health and Safety Course?

Before you can apply for a CSCS Green Labourers Card, you must complete two key requirements:

• A recognised Health & Safety qualification, such as the IOSH Safety, Health and Environment for Construction Workers (SHECW)

• The CITB Health, Safety and Environment Test for Operatives

At MJ Training Solutions, we deliver the IOSH SHECW course online, which is fully approved by Construction Skills Certification Scheme as part of the Green Card route. The course provides the knowledge and certification you need to move forward with your CSCS application.

Here’s why learners in Guildford and Surrey choose MJ Training Solutions:

• Weekly online courses

• £174.00 inc VAT – all inclusive

Whether you’re based near Guildford town centre, Merrow, Burpham, Onslow Village, or commuting from nearby towns, you can complete your qualification without stepping into a classroom.

Who Should Take This Course?

This CSCS Health & Safety course is ideal for anyone who needs the Green Labourers Card, including:

• Construction labourers and operatives

• Apprentices and new starters

• Jobseekers applying for site work

• Workers returning to construction after time away

Most construction sites in Guildford and across Surrey will not allow access without a valid CSCS card. This course ensures you meet site entry requirements and understand your responsibilities on-site.

What Will You Learn?

The IOSH SHE for Construction Workers course focuses on real, practical site safety and covers topics such as:

• Common construction hazards, including slips, trips and falls

• Fire safety and emergency procedures

• Safe manual handling

• Working at height and confined spaces

• Safe use of tools and equipment

• Site welfare, hygiene, and health risks

• Environmental protection and waste control

• Legal duties and personal responsibility on site

At the end of the course, you’ll complete a short online assessment. Once passed, you’ll receive your IOSH certificate, which is accepted by CSCS for the Green Card application.

Why Take the Course Online?

Instead of travelling to a classroom in Guildford or further afield, our online option lets you complete everything from home or work. All you need is:

• A PC, laptop, tablet, or smartphone

• Internet connection

• Webcam (for exam verification)

• Microsoft Teams (free to use)

Courses run weekly, so you’re never waiting long to get started. Because it’s live tutor-led training, you still get the support and interaction of a classroom course – without the hassle of travel or parking.

How Long Is the Course?

The full course and assessment take around 5–6 hours, completed in one day. Sessions usually run during the week, starting in the morning and finishing mid-afternoon.

After passing, you’ll receive your IOSH certificate promptly, allowing you to book your CITB Operatives test and then apply for your CSCS Green Labourers Card.

How Much Does It Cost?

The course fee is:

£174.00 inc VAT

This includes the IOSH course, live online tuition, exam, certificate, course materials, and full support throughout. There are no hidden costs.
