To ensure qualifications remain relevant and are providing the knowledge the industry requires, CITB regularly update course content and exam changes.
As a CITB Approved Training Organisation, 3B Training is committed to implementing all changes in line with CITB requirements. We also want to give our delegates the best possible experience on our courses.
