Description

The NDTG CCDO Advanced Demolition Operative (Topman) Course will train demolition professionals to manage small teams. Their role will include all the responsibilities a Demolition Refurbishment Operative has, as well as the demolition of load-bearing walls and structure by hand.

Advanced Demolition Operatives are supervised by a CCDO Chargehand or a CCDO Site Supervisor.

The NDTG is the only organisation able to issue CCDO cards, which are requested by companies who commission demolition projects in the UK.

Next Steps

Before your red CCDO Advanced Demolition Operative (Topman) card expires, candidates will need to pass the Level 3 NVQ in Demolition.

Providing candidates also hold a valid Specialist Demolition Health, Safety and Environment Test Pass and current NDTG or UKATA Asbestos Awareness certificate, demolition professionals will then be able to apply for the blue CCDO Advanced Demolition Operative card.

The blue CCDO Advanced Demolition Operative card is valid for five-years and candidates will need to re-take the one-day NDTG CCDO Advanced Demolition Operative course to renew it before it expires.
