How do I renew my grade card?

Your SNIJIB CSCS grade card expires when your CSCS date does. In order to renew your card, you must therefore pass a new CSCS health and safety test.

Depending on your grade with the SNIJIB, this will either be either of the following:

Plumbing

Non-Plumbing

Supervisor

Manager CITB/ IOSH/ NEBOSH

Note: The SNIJIB can only provide Plumbing and Non-Plumbing health and safety tests. For all others, please contact CITB.

What constitutes as a Plumbing test?

A "Plumbing" health and safety test from a test centre can include "Plumbing and Heating", "Plumbing and Oil", "Plumbing and Gas" etc.

As long as it has "Plumbing" in the title, we can accept it as a Plumbing health and safety test.

If you are sitting your test with Pearson Vue, you can ask for a "Specialist JIB Plumbing Test".

Am I graded with the SNIJIB?

We may still have some outstanding information regarding your apprenticeship details or qualification, which means you might not have been graded with the SNIJIB.

Get in touch with us to enquire whether or not we have your correct details.

Why haven’t I been upgraded?

Being upgraded with the SNIJIB doesn’t occur automatically; it should be applied for – either by the individual or the employer.

There are some conditions to being upgraded, so please see our Registration and Grading section for details on whether or not you are eligible.
