A CSCS Green card route is typically £100–£180 all in including the course and CITB test. SSSTS is around £250–£400, SMSTS £550–£850, and a plant ticket runs into four figures. Ask about funded places before paying full price — job centres and local schemes sometimes cover them.

Why does this matter if I've just moved to Bedford?
A card or ticket is usually the actual thing standing between you and starting work — not experience. Local providers save you travelling for a one-day course.
