CSCS Mock Test for Supervisors 2024

This CSCS mock test for supervisors features 55 random questions and answers to help you practice and pass your CSCS supervisor test in 2024. As you would expect, the supervisor test will not be as easy as the operatives test because of the added responsibilities attached to the supervisory role.

TIP: if a question seems tricky try using the elimination method to get rid of the obviously incorrect answers.
