What does the CITB managers and professionals test cover?
CITB lists five sections:
- Section A: legal and management
- Section B: occupational health, wellbeing and welfare
- Section C: general safety
- Section D: high risk activities
- Section E: environment
When the update was announced in May 2023, the Construction Skills Certification Scheme (CSCS) said six subjects were being added: mental health, leadership, occupational health governance, behavioural safety, new technologies, and improving legislative compliance.
CITB’s MAP sample test and revision
CITB has a sample test of 13 questions that shows the types of question and the subject areas in the MAP test. It says not to use it on its own, but as part of your revision.
CITB strongly recommends leaving enough time to revise, as some of the subject matter may be unfamiliar. Its revision material comes as an app, a PC download and a revision book.
Who sits the MAP test
The cards page lists every card that needs it. The pass mark is the same as the other versions.
