CCDO CARDS ARE CHANGING

The design of new CCDO Cards is changing, in line with all cards in the CSCS Alliance. This change will only affect new CCDO cards issued from April 2024 onwards. All current cards with the old card design will remain valid until their expiry date.

The new card design no longer features a metal chip (‘contact faceplate’) and now displays a contactless (‘NFC’) logo in its place.

The old cards with the metal chip are still valid and will remain valid until the expiry dates displayed on the front of each card. Upon renewal, these cards will be updated to the new design. These changes apply to all CCDO cards that use CSCS card stock.

As well as the removal of the metal chip there are some minor cosmetic changes to printed text on the cards. The best way to check for a valid CCDO card (or CSCS card) is to use the CSCS Smart Check app.

Please ensure that all site access individuals and processes are updated with these changes to ensure there is no disruption to site access for individuals with the new card design.

In November 2019, the NDTG received an important statement from NOCN Job Cards regarding the Industry Accreditation ‘Grandfather Rights’ withdrawal.

This applies to any coloured card (5-year card) that has been awarded without an NVQ and solely based on Industry Accreditation, cards such as the CCDO Manager Card are included; any cards issued through Grandfather Rights will be completely removed by 31 December 2024.

However, this does not affect any red cards, such as the CCDO Labourer card, as they do not require an NVQ.

Any coloured card, except the CCDO Labourer card, HAS to have the NVQ.

No NVQ, NO 5-year renewal!

With only 7 months to go, for those on grandfather rights cards, please don't leave it too late to complete your NVQ.

Grant increases from 1 April 2023

The Construction Skills Certificate Scheme (CSCS) has announced its plan to move all Industry Accreditation (IA) cardholders to a recognised qualification. You can find more information on the withdrawal of Industry Accreditation by visiting the CSCS website.

To support construction workers transition from an IA card to a qualification, we are increasing the grant for specific supervision NVQ Diplomas/SVQs to £1,250 and specific management NVQ Diplomas/SVQs to £1,500 for achievements from 1 April 2023 as listed here: https://www.citb.co.uk/levy-grants-and-funding/grants-and-funding/qualification-grants/short-qualification-grant/

Now is a better time than ever to get onto your CCDO Supervisor and CCDO Manager courses, please contact [email protected] for all your training needs

We pay grants for the successful completion of approved short qualifications which take less than one year and that focus on the core construction skills needed across the industry.
