What is NSI?

The National Skills Index is a free, independent reference for UK construction qualifications. We are not a training provider. We do not sell courses. We map every card, every cert, and every career path so you can make informed decisions about your training.

Every qualification page includes: what it is, who needs it, what it really costs, how long it takes, and where it fits in your career. Data sourced from CSCS, CPCS, CITB, IPAF, NPORS, PASMA, UKATA, and official registers.
