All Industry Accreditation (IA) cards issued under IA from January 1st, 2020, will expire on December 31st, 2024, and cannot be replaced using IA. Instead, individuals will require a vocational or academic construction-related qualification, or membership of an approved professional body.
CSCS cards should be held through the achievement of a recognised qualification and everyone should hold the right card, for the right job, in line with the Construction Leadership Council guidance.
Many of those with IA cards will no longer require a card, while those who do need to undertake a qualification will not need to attend college as flexible options such as professional discussions and on-site assessments are available. CITB grants are available to support CITB-registered employers achieve recognised qualifications.
