The Construction Industry Scaffolders Record Scheme (CISRS), previously known as the CITB Scaffolder scheme is the occupational training standard for the scaffolding trade within the United Kingdom. It is one of the oldest trade card schemes in existence and has been available for over 35 years. CISRS has continually strived to maintain the highest standards in scaffolding sector training and has introduced the Overseas Scaffolder Training Scheme (OSTS) in order to offer its’ accredited training to those outside the British Isles.

Other overseas operations include training and third party inspection throughout other regions throughout the world including Europe, the Caribbean, Africa and the Far East including South Korea and China.
