Excellent provider. They offer you the best price, quality and commitment to deliver the service! The trainer was knowledgeable and engaging, he who could not only give practical examples of his own experience, but somehow managed to turn a pretty dry topic into fun lessons! I totally recommend it.

Course programme
The qualification is divided into three units, each of which is assessed separately:
- Management of Health and Safety (NGC1).

- Foundations in health and safety
- Health and safety management systems - policy.
- Health and safety management systems - organising.
- Health and safety management systems - risk assessment and controls.

Assessment
This accredited NEBOSH qualification is assessed by two exams of 2 hours each, and a workplace-based practical inspection project. The exams are conducted in the business centre where you studied NGC1 and GC2 and take place on the Monday morning following the GC2 week, the project is completed in your own workplace. The project should take no longer than a few hours to complete and you will have 7 days from the end of the course to return it to us by post. If you are currently unemployed, we can usually arrange somewhere for you to conduct a workplace assessment. If this is something you require, please contact us before booking.
Certification
Those who successfully complete the course and pass the assessments are awarded the official NEBOSH National General Certificate in Occupational Safety and Health. Certificates are forwarded directly to the candidate by NEBOSH approximately 16 weeks after the completion of the course although results are usually issued within 10 weeks.
How are Courses Run?
All of our NEBOSH General Certificate courses are run as full-time block weeks, Monday to Friday 09:00am until approximately 5:00pm. Whilst other health and safety training providers may attempt to offer the NEBOSH General Certificate in other formats such as e-learning courses, distance learning, one day a week/month etc, in our many years of experience we have consistently found that full-time block courses with exams scheduled straight after equates to a significantly improved likelihood of delegates passing all of the assessments required for actually achieving the qualification.
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 General Certificate courses have the following included in the course cost:
- The 648-page General Certificate study book retailing at £46.99
- All examination fees.
- All certification fees.
