What is it about?
The National General Certificate is the most widely held health and safety qualification in the UK with over 100,000 people having gained the certificate since it was launched in 1989. Accredited at Level 3 within the National Qualification Framework (NQF) it provides a valuable, recognised qualification for those wishing to accredit their health and safety knowledge, and is a sound basis for further professional study.
What will you get out of it?

• Theoretical and practical application to manage health and safety issues from design and planning through to implementation.
• The confidence and skills to take the lead on health and safety issues and build an effective safety culture within your organisation.
• An internationally recognised and Level 3 accredited qualification, respected by employers in all sectors and industries.
• As a qualified health and safety professional you will be an asset to any organisation, reducing costs by preventing accidents and ill health of employees, without incurring unnecessary expense by over-reacting to trivial risks.
• All NEBOSH certificates meet the academic requirements for Technician membership (TechIOSH) of the Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH) and Associate membership (AIIRSM) of the International Institute of Risk and Safety Management (IIRSM).
