The 3 Different CITB HS&E Tests
Anyone hoping to obtain a CSCS Card in Nottingham will need to take the CITB Health, Safety and Environment Test. As of this writing, there are 3 such tests. They are:
The Operatives Test - This is the simplest of the 3 tests, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy. If you’re seeking a CSCS Green Card (Labourer) or a CSCS Red Card (Provisional), take this test. 
The Specialist Test - This test asks for more specific knowledge about the subjects covered. It’s typically given to Plumbers, Electricians and others with special skills. If you want a Red Card (Trainee, Apprentice or Experienced Worker), Blue Card (Skilled Worker) or Gold Card (Supervisory, Advanced), take this test.
The Managers and Professionals Test - This test goes into extraordinary detail about the subjects covered and is typically given to those seeking a Red Card (Technical, Supervisor, Managers), White Card (Academically or Professionally Qualified Person) or Black Card (Manager).
Take these tips to heart
Revise, revise, revise - None of these tests are easy. Having to take them over again will cost money and could cost you lost opportunities. We strongly recommend you buy and use revision materials and arrive at the Nottingham test centre prepared.
Get to know the computer software - You’ll have an opportunity before the test starts to familiarise yourself with the test software. We suggest you make the best of it. You don’t want anything to interfere with your ability to complete the test in a timely fashion.
Don’t waste time - If you’re having trouble with a particular question, just move on. Leave yourself some time at the end to circle back to the questions you skipped.
Answer every question - Even if you have to guess, make sure you answer every question on the test. If you guess on a multiple-choice question you have a 20-25% chance of being correct. If you leave it blank you have no chance.
The Bottom Line
The CITB Test doesn’t have to be an ordeal. Take the above tips to heart and you’ll give yourself the best possible chance of passing and receiving your CSCS Card.
