CSCS Health and Safety Course Plymouth
If you live in Plymouth or the surrounding areas of Devon and Cornwall and are looking to work in construction, one of the first steps you’ll need to take is completing a recognised CSCS Health and Safety course. At MJ Training Solutions, we deliver a fully online, nationally recognised course that provides everything required to apply for the CSCS Green Labourer Card – essential for gaining site access and securing work.
Delivered weekly via Microsoft Teams, our course is available to learners across the UK, but is particularly suited to jobseekers, labourers, and tradespeople in Plymouth, Saltash, Ivybridge, Tavistock, Torpoint, and across South Devon and East Cornwall.
What Is the CSCS Health and Safety Course?
Before you can apply for a CSCS Green Labourer Card, there are two mandatory requirements. The first is a recognised Health & Safety qualification, such as the IOSH Safety, Health and Environment for Construction Workers course. The second is passing the CITB Health, Safety and Environment Test for Operatives.
At MJ Training Solutions, we deliver the IOSH Safety, Health and Environment for Construction Workers course online. This qualification is accepted by CSCS as part of the Green Labourer Card route and provides the essential knowledge needed to work safely and responsibly on construction sites.
Why Choose MJ Training Solutions?
Learners in Plymouth and the surrounding area choose MJ Training Solutions because we offer a simple, compliant route to the CSCS Green Card. Courses run weekly and are delivered live via Microsoft Teams. The price is £174.00 inc VAT, which includes tuition, assessment, certification, and full support throughout the process. There is no classroom attendance required, no travel, and the qualification is nationally recognised and fully aligned with CSCS requirements.
Whether you’re based in Plymouth city centre, Mutley, Plympton, Plymstock, or commuting from nearby towns, you can complete your qualification from home.
Who Is This Course For?
This course is designed for anyone who needs a CSCS Green Labourer Card, including construction labourers and site operatives, apprentices and new starters, jobseekers applying for site work, and workers returning to construction after time away.
Most construction sites in Plymouth and across Devon will not allow access without a valid CSCS card. Completing this course ensures you meet site entry requirements and understand your responsibilities under health and safety law.
What Will You Learn?
The IOSH course focuses on practical, real-world construction safety. It covers common site hazards such as slips, trips, and falls, fire safety and emergency procedures, manual handling, working at height and confined spaces, safe use of tools and equipment, site welfare and health risks, environmental awareness, and legal duties and personal responsibility.
At the end of the course, you will complete a short online assessment. Once passed, you will receive your IOSH certificate, which is accepted by CSCS as part of the Green Card application process.
Why Take the Course Online?
Online delivery removes the need to travel to a training centre in Plymouth or elsewhere in Devon. All you need is a PC, laptop, tablet, or smartphone, a stable internet connection, a webcam for identity verification, and Microsoft Teams, which is free to use.
Courses run weekly, so you’re never waiting long to get started. Because the training is live and tutor-led, you still benefit from interaction, guidance, and support throughout the day.
How Long Does the Course Take?
The course and assessment are completed in one day, typically taking around 5–6 hours from start to finish. Sessions usually run during the week, starting in the morning and finishing mid-afternoon.
Once you pass, you’ll receive your IOSH certificate promptly, allowing you to book your CITB Operatives Test and move straight on to your CSCS Green Card application.
Construction Work in Plymouth and Devon
Plymouth and the wider Devon area continue to see strong construction activity, including housing developments, regeneration projects, infrastructure works, defence-related construction, and education and healthcare refurbishments.
Holding a valid CSCS card makes you significantly more employable with local agencies and contractors, many of whom will not offer work without proof of recognised health and safety training.
What Happens After the Course?
After successfully completing the course, the next steps are straightforward. You’ll receive your IOSH certificate, book and pass the CITB Health, Safety and Environment Operatives Test, and then apply online for your CSCS Green Labourer Card.
If you need guidance at any stage, we’re happy to help you through the process.
