Overview

8 days + half a day for exam.

The NEBOSH National Construction Certificate is designed for people who have an involvement in the construction industry and are required to provide health, safety and welfare advice. This course provides a good foundation in safety and risk management which will help to ensure that health and safety suggestions or decisions are properly taken into account.

Delegates should have already attained NEBOSH National General Certificate (NGC1) within the previous 5 years.

Description

What Does the Qualification Cover?

The qualification is divided into two units, each of which is assessed separately:

  • Managing and Controlling Hazards in Construction Activities (NCC1)

  • Construction health and safety practical application (NCC2)

Synopsis of Course Syllabus

The NEBOSH Construction Certificate course syllabus is made up of the following units:

Unit NCC1: Managing and Controlling Hazards in Construction Activities

  • Element 1: Construction law and management

  • Element 2: Construction site - hazards and risk control

  • Element 3: Vehicle and plant movement - hazards and risk control

Assessment

This accredited NEBOSH qualification is assessed by an exam lasting 2 hours and a workplace-based practical inspection project. The exam is conducted in the centre where you studied NCC1. The practical assignment is completed in the workplace; the practical assignment should take no longer than four hours to complete and you will have 10 days from the end of the course to return it to us by email.

Certification

Those who successfully complete the course and pass the assessments are awarded the official NEBOSH National Certificate in Construction Health and Safety. Certificates are forwarded to the candidate by us approximately 16 weeks after completion of the course although results are usually issued within 12 weeks.

How are Courses Run?

Our NEBOSH courses are run as full-time block courses, usually Monday to Friday 9:00 am until approximately 5:00 pm. Whilst other health and safety training providers may attempt to offer the NEBOSH courses in other formats, such as e-learning, distance learning, one day a week/month etc, in our experience we have consistently found that full-time block courses with exams scheduled afterwards make for a significantly improved likelihood of delegates passing the assessments first time around.

What's Included?

There are NO hidden extras to pay on top of our health and safety training course prices, unlike other providers who charge extra for things like study books and exam fees.

All of our NEBOSH Construction courses have the following included in the price:

The NEBOSH National Construction Certificate study book

  • Revision materials

  • All examination fees

  • All certification fees

  • Refreshments

  • Ongoing support

FAQs

Study method describes the format in which the course will be delivered. At Reed Courses, courses are delivered in a number of ways, including online courses, where the course content can be accessed online remotely, and classroom courses, where courses are delivered in person at a classroom venue.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
