The Client Contractor National Safety Group (CCNSG) National Course is a two-day training course in basic site safety, providing delegates with knowledge and understanding on a variety of mandatory and essential site topics including health, safety and environmental awareness, enabling them to work safely in engineering and construction environments with a lowered risk to themselves and others.

This remote learning and examination option for the CCNSG Safety Passport course has been created to allow delegates to gain and develop the required knowledge outside of the classroom.

Microsoft Teams MUST be installed beforehand to ensure you can participate successfully.

This course is also available as a full two-day classroom based CCNSG Safety Passport course, please click here.

On successful completion of this course, delegates will receive a CCNSG Safety Passport. This is the engineering construction industry safety card, which is valid for three years.

The trainer will conduct an online exam with all delegates via video communication on Microsoft Teams. The trainer will read out the questions and answers, and accurately record the delegates chosen answer. The delegate must be visible via the video at all times and must not use any reference material as this remains a closed book exam.

Assessment is via multiple-choice test papers at the end of the course, with an 80% pass mark.

Employees of all levels, including contractors, self-employed individuals and workers employed by an organisation directly, who work within the construction and engineering industry.

The CCNSG safety passport is the agreed site safety training qualification needed for access to process plant sites in the UK, with many companies requiring personnel to hold this qualification before allowing them access to a site or premises.

Virtual Classroom

This course will be delivered via video conferencing using Microsoft Teams Virtual Classroom. This allows two-way communication, ensuring the course is interactive with delegates having the opportunity to ask questions. Each delegate in attendance must have a webcam and microphone, to provide evidence of identity and the ability to answer all examination questions.
