The NEBOSH Certificate in Fire Safety and Risk Management course covers the management of health and safety and in particular fire safety including legal requirements. It also includes principles of fire and explosion, causes and prevention of fires, fire protection in buildings and ensuring the safety of people in the event of fire. The content is designed to equip those studying it to undertake fire risk assessments in most, low risk workplaces.
Suitable for: Managers and supervisory staff who need to ensure that their organisation meets its responsibilities under fire safety legislation. Courses leading to this qualification should equip holders to carry out fire risk assessments of most low risk workplaces and identify the range of fire protective and preventative measures required. It is therefore also suitable for people moving into fire safety adviser roles.

About this course
The NEBOSH Certificate in Fire Safety and Risk Management is primarily for people who hold a current NEBOSH National General Certificate in Occupational Safety and Health [Unit NGC1] Certificate (achieved within the last 5 years).
Those without the NGC1 Unit Certificate can still attend this course, but on successful completion will only get NEBOSH FC1 and FC2 Unit Certificates, and not the full NEBOSH Certificate in Fire Safety and Risk Management. However; a future successful completion of the NGC1Unit (within 5 years) will allow the student to upgrade to the full qualification.

Course programme
The NEBOSH Certificate in Fire Safety and Risk Management has been established to meet the needs of the Regulatory Reform [Fire Safety] Order 2005. It is designed to provide a sound breadth of underpinning knowledge that enables people to discharge more effectively their duties or functions with respect to health and safety in fire safety and fire risk related activities. Such people include departmental managers, facilities managers, employee representatives, responsible people, etc.
The NEBOSH Certificate in Fire safety and Risk Management aims to provide those making day-to-day decisions at and in the workplace with a broad knowledge of fire related health and safety in order to ensure that the fire health and safety implications of their decisions are properly taken into account. Our course has been structured for those people who already have passed their NEBOSH National General Certificate in Occupational Safety and Health [Unit NGC1]and will enhance fire safety knowledge gained during that qualification.
