A short sample: exam-style questions from the app's 3,000+ bank, with the explanation after each one. No sign-up.
Question 1 of 6 · Manual Handling
What is the first step before carrying out a manual handling task?
Not quite.
The manual handling hierarchy requires first considering whether the manual handling can be avoided entirely. If not, assess the risk and reduce it as far as reasonably practicable.
Question 2 of 6 · Noise & Vibration
At what noise level must employers ensure hearing protection is worn?
Not quite.
At 85 dB(A), the upper exposure action value, employers must provide hearing protection and take steps to reduce noise exposure.
Question 3 of 6 · Health & Welfare Hazards
How does asbestos-related disease typically develop?
Not quite.
Asbestos-related diseases have a long latency period, typically developing 15-60 years after first exposure. This includes mesothelioma, asbestosis, and asbestos-related lung cancer.
Question 4 of 6 · Working at Height
What is the correct angle for a ladder against a wall?
Not quite.
The correct angle is 75 degrees, which means the base should be 1 unit out from the wall for every 4 units of height (1:4 ratio).
Question 5 of 6 · Electrical Safety
What should be done before starting excavation work near buried services?
Not quite.
Before excavating, use cable and pipe locating equipment (e.g., CAT and Genny), refer to utility plans from the relevant service providers, and hand dig near known services.
Question 6 of 6 · Waste Management
How long must waste transfer notes be kept?
Not quite.
Waste transfer notes must be kept for at least 2 years (or 3 years for hazardous waste consignment notes).

Frequently Asked Questions
Which CSCS tests does the app cover?+
All three CITB HS&E test variants: Operative, Specialist (with all 12 specialist trades, from plumbing to demolition to highway works), and Managers & Professionals (MAP). Whatever CSCS card you're applying for, the exam it requires is in the app.
Are the mock exams like the real CSCS test?+
Yes — every mock follows CITB's published format: 50 questions in 45 minutes with a 45/50 pass mark. The app builds each mock from 38 knowledge questions plus 3 behavioural case-study scenarios of 4 linked questions.
How many practice questions are there?+
Over 3,000 questions across 8 sections — legal and management, health and welfare, general safety, high-risk activities, environment, behavioural case studies, highway works, and specialist activities — plus 40 behavioural case study scenarios.
Does the app include hotspot and drag-and-drop questions?+
Yes. CITB's test isn't only multiple choice — CITB's own revision app includes hot spot questions, for example — and this app's question bank covers single-answer, multiple-answer, image, hotspot, drag-and-drop and case-study questions.
Can I practise offline?+
Yes — once downloaded, the app works without internet, so you can practise questions and mock exams on site, on the commute, or anywhere without signal.
Is the app up to date for 2026?+
Yes. The question bank is reviewed against current UK regulations — including CDM 2015, RIDDOR, COSHH, and the Work at Height Regulations — and reflects CITB's current test format, including the 45/50 pass mark for all three variants.
