Construction Health and Safety

Course Content

Award:
National Certificate - NEBOSH

What's it all about?:
Not only do you have to keep up with construction deadlines, but it can be a challenge to keep up-to-date with construction techniques and technology, never mind any new legislation on health and safety. However, you must remain abreast of regulatory updates and understand how you can put theory into practice. Our 15-week course aims to help you do just that because neglecting health and safety not only risks lives but can also cost a business dearly legally and financially.
