A Skill Card shows that you have the right skills, qualifications, and health and safety knowledge to work confidently in the mechanical services industry. It helps you access construction sites, gives employers confidence in your abilities, and shows that you meet recognised industry standards.
Getting a SKILL Card is a straightforward process. Start by choosing the card that matches your job role and checking that you meet the required qualification and health and safety criteria. You can then apply online by entering your details, uploading proof of your qualifications and a valid health and safety test result, and paying the required card fee.
Once your application has been checked and approved, you’ll receive your SKILL Card. It confirms that you meet recognised industry standards and can help you gain access to construction sites. You may also be able to use a digital version of your card, making it convenient to keep and access on your phone.
Many workers choose to apply for their SKILL Card through Construction Certification, which can make the application process easier and more convenient.
