NPORS Training FAQs FAQs
NPORS (the National Plant Operators Registration Scheme) is one of the UK’s two main plant operator card schemes, run by NPORS Limited and widely used on civils, utilities and rail projects. It issues a CSCS-recognised plant card on the same site-access framework as CPCS. This FAQ section covers what NPORS is, how it compares to CPCS, the N-codes by machine, the traditional and CSCS-recognised card routes, the theory and practical tests, costs and renewals.
