CITB Guaranteed Pass Scheme ONLY applies to classroom based courses

Unfortunately due to the revisions required to deliver the emergency remote online CITB courses, RISK are unable to accommodate the CITB Guaranteed Pass Scheme. This is due to the limited numbers available on courses and technology requirements of completing the online exam.

The new standards impact the SMSTS Course Guaranteed Pass Scheme in three core areas:

#1 - CITB SMSTS Pre-course Delegate Assessment Criteria

Delegates must have the...

• physical ability
• communication skills
• literacy
• numeracy
• and the required experience and skills

...to ensure they are competent to attend and complete the course.

• All delegates must present photographic ID on the day of the course exam. (Driving License, Passport or other official photographic ID will be acceptable)
• All sessions must be attended in sequence and without full attendance the certificate cannot be awarded.
