The CPCS renewal test is an important step in the process towards maintaining skills, knowledge and competency of the cardholder.
Prior to taking the test, cardholders are advised to carefully study both the supporting information and the revision material known as factsheets, which will prepare them in deciding the correct answer or answers to each given question. Correct answers are based on legislation or good practice adopted, in the majority of cases, by the construction and allied sectors.
The questions are selected randomly and will not appear in the order that topics appear in the revision material.
If the card holder does not answer all the questions correctly, the score report issued after completing the test will indicate the topic areas in which the questions were answered incorrectly. The cardholder should, prior to retaking the test, re-study all topic areas.
