CITB TWCTC Course – Temporary Works Co-Ordinator Training
The CITB Temporary Works Co-ordinator Training Course (TWCTC) is a two-day programme designed to build a clear understanding of the temporary works co-ordination process and its vital role in safe and efficient project delivery. Developed in partnership with the Temporary Works Forum, the HSE, and Build UK, this course explains how temporary works should be managed in line with BS 5975:2019 and the updated BS 5975-1:2024 standards. It focuses on the principles of co-ordination, communication, co-operation, and competency — the “4Cs” essential to effective temporary works management. Rather than teaching detailed engineering design, the TWCTC concentrates on the management and procedural aspects of temporary works, helping delegates understand their responsibilities, the importance of collaboration across teams, and how good practice reduces risk across all project scales. Completion of the course demonstrates a strong understanding of the Temporary Works Co-ordinator (TWC) role
