Many large organizations choose the NEBOSH International General Certificate as a key part of their supervisors’ or management development program.

You will develop the essential Risk Management skills to create a safe and healthy workplace and, you will have the foundation knowledge to make recommendations to your employer to help them improve Health and Safety Management. Smaller organisations, operating in lower risk environments, often choose the NEBOSH IGC as the appropriate qualification for the manager taking the lead on Health and Safety issues.

The course duration is ten (10) days. IG1 - 4 Days, IG2 - 6 Days.

The NEBOSH IGC covers the main legal requirements for Health and Safety, identification and control of workplace hazards and the practical application of this knowledge. The syllabus is mapped according to the International Occupational Standards for Health and Safety.

Previous Health and Safety knowledge or experience is not essential to take the course. You will need to have a good level of English to be able to understand complex concepts and discuss them in your exam.

The NEBOSH IGC is accepted by IOSH, the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health as meeting the academic requirements for Technician Membership of IOSH (Tech IOSH). It is also accepted by The International Institute of Risk and Safety Management (IIRSM) for associate membership.

Candidates are assessed with examinations for each of the two NEBOSH IG Units as follows:
IG1 - Management of International Health & Safety
IG2 - Risk Assessment

IG1 - Is an online open book examination - OBE, which will demonstrate the learner’s knowledge of the Health and Safety Management principles covered in Elements 1-4.
IG2 - A Risk Assessment report carried out in the workplace and uploaded to NEBOSH by the Learning Provider, which will demonstrate the learner’s knowledge of workplace hazards and risks covered in Elements 5-11.

A unit certificate is issued denoting successful achievement of each unit. An additional parchment is issued on the successful completion of both IG1 and IG2.

If any learner wants to do a re-sit exam following a referral, they can apply for this, and resit the examination on the next available date. The learner can, if they wish, sit on a scheduled revision day if they feel is necessary to help them. Please note that there is a charge for this.

The number of participants per course does not exceed 20 learners, to optimize interaction during the course. The typical course numbers are 12-16 learners.
