The Nebosh Diploma is the flagship of NEBOSH when launched in 1988, was the first UK vocational qualification to be developed specifically for health and safety professionals. The National Diploma is recognised
and reliable and over 13200 learners have achieved the qualification since its introduction.
We launched the new Diploma in September 2021. This is an intensive yet informative and enjoyable course which is run over 30 tutorial days plus up to 15 days to complete the three new style assessments. The course is run on a day release basis to allow delegates to manage the course around their work commitments. The 30-day total of tutorials is divided between three main course units, ND1 covering the law and management of H&S, ND2 workplace health issues including chemicals, noise and vibration and the ND3 which focuses in workplace safety issues including fire, explosions, machinery and workplace issues. There are additional dates included to enable you to complete the three assessments which are now in the format of an assignment and two case studies. We run one full programme a year and you can start with any of the Units but we suggest you start with the ND2 or ND3 as these are the shorter more practical units.
When you decide to start your course of study, you can book each unit one at a time or you can book our Flexi course. Course assessments are at set dates each year and when you book and are studying we will let you know assessment submission dates to enable us and you to plan your study. When you register for the Diploma with us and Nebosh you have a 5 year period to complete your diploma, which allows for breaks of study to be taken for personal or work reasons. If you want to discuss flexible options please contact us so you can discuss your needs with one of our course tutors who will be able to offer advice on the possible options to meet your needs and those of the qualification. Whatever you choose we are here to support you all the way to the completion of the qualification.
The course is highly participative with tutor presentations supported by the use of practical exercises, syndicate work, video and feedback sessions. Additional online resources, podcasts and access to an extensive library of
videos giving full presentations is also provided so if you want to recap or review a session again you can do so at any time.
The Diploma can form the basis of a professional qualification for health and safety practitioners. Along with relevant experience, successful completion can lead to Chartered Membership of the Institution of Occupational
Safety and Health (IOSH). The Diploma has been re-designed to provide knowledge and understanding to aid the development of competency in the field of occupational safety and health. Relevant to any H&S professional
whatever industry or sector they work in.
The new NEBOSH National Diploma is the qualification for aspiring health and safety professionals, building directly upon the foundations of knowledge provided by the NEBOSH National General Certificate. It is designed to provide learning with the knowledge and understanding required for undertaking a career as a health and safety professional and it also provides a sound basis for progression to postgraduate study. So you will need to have completed the Nebosh General Certificate or an equivalent level 3 H&S qualification to ensure you have the underpinning knowledge to embark on your diploma course of study, we the new diploma does cover material already studied at the Certificate level. The qualification deliberately looks at general workplace issues so that it can be applied in many different sectors in which health and safety professionals may work. Health and safety practitioners, advisers and officers who wish to develop their knowledge and skills.
