Course programme

The NEBOSH Diploma Conversion course is a condensed version of the NEBOSH National Diploma and it's assumed that candidates are up to date with the material covered in NEBOSH Diploma Part 1

With the phasing out of the previous NEBOSH Diploma Parts 1 & 2, we are continuing to offer the opportunity for NEBOSH Diploma Part 1 holders (who have not proceeded to NEBOSH Diploma Part 2) to study for and sit the NEBOSH National Diploma examinations. Candidates must complete the application forms before a place on the course can be confirmed.

Delivery will be on a block release, unit by unit basis. Each unit is five days, with optional revision courses available. Teaching techniques include formal tutorials, syndicate exercises, directed personal research, feedback presentations, discussion groups and evening exercises.
