FAQ – Temporary Works Coordinator Refresher Course
My certificate’s still in date – do I really need this refresher?
You do if you want to keep your qualification active. Once it hits five years, it’s out of date. This course keeps you up to speed and gives you another five years without having to start from scratch.
What does the course actually go through?
It covers the main things you need as a TWC – updates to BS 5975, checking paperwork, coordinating with others on site, and making sure things are still being done properly. It’s all about keeping your knowledge sharp and relevant.
Who can book onto the refresher?
Anyone with a valid Temporary Works Coordinator certificate. If your certificate’s already lapsed, this one won’t count – you’ll need to do the full course again.
Is this recognised by CITB?
Yes – it’s part of the Site Safety Plus scheme. Once you complete it, you’ll get a fresh CITB certificate, good for another five years across the UK.
Can I do it online?
Yep. We run sessions online and in-person, depending on what suits you. You can join a remote group from anywhere in the UK, or pop into one of our training centres.
What do I need to take with me?
Just proof that you’ve already done the full TWC course – ideally your current certificate. We’ll sort the rest: materials, workbook, and support on the day.
Is there a test at the end?
There is, but don’t stress. It’s short, multiple choice, and open book. As long as you’ve taken part, you’ll be fine.
What if my certificate ran out a while ago?
In that case, the refresher won’t do – you’ll need to retake the full two-day course to get qualified again.
Can we get CITB grant funding for this?
Yes, if your company’s registered with CITB. We can help you with the forms and make sure you claim what you’re entitled to.
Who’s this course really for?
It’s aimed at people still acting as a Temporary Works Coordinator, or those who plan to keep the role going. It’s a way to stay competent, compliant, and confident in what you’re doing.
Does this count as CPD?
It does. It shows you’re keeping up with best practice and maintaining your skills. A big plus for tenders, audits or just your own professional growth.
Can we arrange this for a group?
Yes – if you’ve got a few people who need it, we can run a session for your team. Either at your place or online. No problem.
