DurationThis course incorporates a wide appreciation of health and safety at work, including legal responsibilities, accident investigation techniques, COSHH and risk assessment. Health and Safety is a very complex, diverse and specialised function, especially with all the new legislation and EC Directives.
It is a legal requirement for all companies to appoint a ‘competent person’ to assist with health and safety. This certificate will help satisfy this requirement.
What has changed with the new syllabus?
The NEBOSH General course now consists of only two units, resulting in a small reduction of the overall study hours. The content has been restructured and updated to reflect modern health and safety practices.
This includes a change to the way the NEBOSH National General Certificate is assessed, with only one open-book exam and one practical assessment.
Who Should Attend?
This popular Certificate is aimed at managers and non-specialists who have local responsibilities for health and safety and require an internationally recognised measure of competence in this field. If you advise others in any capacity on health and safety issues, or if you are a safety adviser seeking initial training for your role the course will provide a solid introduction to the principles of health and safety.
Benefits:
The NEBOSH General Certificate also enables delegates to interpret legislation and implement practical cost saving solutions. The course will help you to improve your ability to identify hazards and recommend appropriate action.
