ATaC is operating the AMI Skills Card Scheme, which is a nationally recognised construction skills card scheme carrying the CSCS logo.

Cards carrying the CSCS logo provide a means to verify that people who want to work on constructions sites have the necessary qualifications for the type of work they carry out.

All physical cards issued by ATaC use smart technology and contain an electronic chip. This can be used to check the identity of the card holder and when ATaC updates a card holders’ qualifications the chip in the card will automatically be updated.

Virtual smartcards can also be issued to applicants, at no additional cost, if the applicant provides a personal mobile number and email address on the application form. A virtual smartcard is a smartcard that is stored in an app on the card holders’ smartphone or tablet (this can be used instead of or as well as a physical card). Full details on the smartcard system and app are available here

Currently ATaC AMI Skills Cards are available for:

• Asbestos Analyst – temporary red and 5-year Academically Qualified Person white cards

• Asbestos Surveyor – temporary red and 5-year Academically Qualified Person white cards

• Asbestos Analyst  / Surveyor – temporary red and 5-year Academically Qualified Person white cards

Full information on the scheme is available to download on this page, with specific information and application forms for analyst and surveyor cards available on the relevant web pages found via the links on the left of this page.
