Partnership continues
The Construction Industry Training Board (CITB) has agreed to continue testing under contract with computer-based testing (CBT) specialist Pearson VUE.

The continued partnership will allow candidates to undertake the test introduced in 2001 to ensure that everyone working in the sector has a minimum level of health, safety and environmental awareness. Candidates can take the test at a network of centres located throughout the UK.
The test network means that candidates are able to take a test without having to travel long distances, with the online booking system allowing tests to be booked on-demand and with a ‘walk-in’ facility.
A recent Pearson VUE survey found that the majority of candidates who took part in the survey had to travel for less than half an hour to take their test.
