NEBOSH National General Certificate British Safety Services
Price: AED 17,105

    Course details

    The course is appropriate for staff that have received little or no formal, structured training, or who wish to acquire an internationally recognised qualification. Included in this group are those managers who may hold the company position of safety advisor as part of their duties.

    Many companies are now taking the concept of incorporating the General Certificate in Occupational Safety and Health course as an integral feature of their development programme, with the principle objective of increasing management awareness of their responsibility. Such training has the effect of ensuring both legal compliance and reducing the costs of accidents and ill health at work.

    Course Objectives

    Upon completion of this course, candidates will be able to:

    • identify common and obvious hazards in the workplace, and be able to recommend remedial actions;
    • investigate accidents (including near misses), and make logical, cost-effective recommendations to prevent recurrence;
    • identify the main items of health and safety legislation that apply to workplaces;
    • recognise the human and organisational problems that must be overcome to achieve a safe and healthy environment;
    • use information sources to advise managers on safety matters.

    Course Style

    The primary method of learning will be via guided study and assignments to develop the knowledge and skills required for the final assessment. Considerable use will be made of videos and slide shows. Homework will be set at the end of every day, which will require 45-90 minutes study per evening.

    Delegates' progress will be monitored through continuous assessment and evening work.

    Assessment

    All participants will be required to carry out a 30 minute inspection of a real workplace area, after which they will be given 90 minutes to prepare a written report on their findings, using a report form provided, covering the hazards observed and remedial action recommended.

    A written examination in the form of two individual papers will be sat on the final day, Part 1 a.m., Part 2 p.m.. Both papers are of 2 hours' duration.

    The course tutors will mark the practical test reports in accordance with NEBOSH criteria and NEBOSH will mark the two written papers. Results will normally be advised within 10 weeks of examination date by NEBOSH.

    Unlike most of our competitors, we are happy and proud to be judged by our results, not with vague statements BUT WITH FACTS! This course is run in conjunction with Rapid Results College (RRC) and is also available on a day release basis, for which it is extended to 12 days

    Cancellations

    Refunds of fees will only be made for written cancellations received at least 21 days prior to the start of the course (less a 10% cancellation fee to cover administration costs). However, we are happy to accept substitute delegates. Any changes to delegates should be notified, by telephone, as soon as possible.

    Bookings that are accepted within 48 hours are deemed confirmed and subject to payment, even if the delegate is subsequently unable to attend.

    The programme of courses is correct at the time of publication. However, we reserve the right to alter or cancel the programme due to circumstances beyond our control.
