About the TWC-2-day Online Course Course

The two-day Temporary Works Co-ordinator Training Course (TWCTC) is designed to help those who have responsibility for managing all forms of temporary works on site. The course seeks to improve the knowledge of this role and the temporary works environment.

The course delegates must attend the two days and upon successful completion of the course will receive a Temporary Works Coordinator qualification certificate accredited by the CITB. This is valid for 5 years.

Delegates must have previous experience of temporary works to be eligible for this Temporary Works Coordinator course. Those who do not have this, should attend a CITB (TWGATC) – Temporary Works General Awareness Training Course.

CITB Temporary Works Coordinator Course Detail

Temporary works are safety- and business-critical and require careful co-ordination. An accepted way of achieving this is through the adoption of the management process outlined in BS 5975:2019, which introduces the temporary works co-ordinator (TWC) as a key figure. This course explains the role and its overall management context.
Temporary works on both smaller and larger sites can be high risk activities. Therefore, understanding the essentials of good risk and safety management, as outlined in BS 5975:2019, is relevant for projects of all sizes.

This CITB course includes the following elements:

The course gives emphasis throughout to the importance of communication, co-ordination, co-operation and competency (the 4Cs), risk management, safety and business relations, allowing the TWC to:
• understand the need for and duties of a TWC
• understand the role of others
• have a detailed knowledge and understanding of BS 5975 in respect of this role.

The course delegates will be assessed throughout the training through group works, practical exercises and will be required to successfully pass a multiple-choice question paper.
