What does this course cover?

The NEBOSH National General Certificate Course covers the main legal requirements for safety in the UK, whilst identifying and ensuring awareness of a range of workplace hazards and methods of control for both accident prevention and reduction of ill health.

Management of health and safety in the workplace is not only a legal requirement and a moral imperative but it also makes good business sense, reducing time lost through accident or injury while fulfilling duty of care obligations

Qualified safety professionals are real assets to their organisations, building an effective safety culture within the company and reducing costs by preventing accidents and ill health of employees.

NEBOSH qualifications are recognised internationally and are essential for those seeking the competence to effectively manage health and safety within their own organisation.

Frequently Asked Questions

RQF/CQFW Level 3 in England, Wales and Northern Ireland.

It is not impossible but do not underestimate this course.  It will require work on your part.  Since the change to the new syllabus, there have been good pass rates for the open book exam (NG1) while many learners have been referred for the practical assessment (NG2) as this is a pass or refer.  It is not graded i.e. no pass mark, and learners must meet the requirement in every criterion in order to pass.

There is no expiry date for the qualification, however, if you hold a professional membership (such as IOSH or IIRSM) you will be required to do CPD to maintain your membership.  Likewise, if you are working in health and safety in the workplace, it will be necessary for you to keep yourself up to date.

11 taught days in the classroom, 1 revision day, 24 hour open book exam plus 2 weeks to complete a practical assignment.  You have 5 years in which to complete the qualification and can re-take element as many times as necessary if you do not pass it.

You do not need experience, but it all helps as does any other health and safety training you may have undertaken.
