They will give them a broad understanding of health and safety issues and enable them to manage risks, within workplace activities, effectively. Many people take the NEBOSH NCC and/or the NEBOSH NGC as a first step in a career in health and safety. The qualifications both meet the academic requirements for Technical membership (Tech IOSH) of the Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH). They provide a valuable overview and are a sound basis for further professional study.
