The assignment requires the completion of a 10,000+ word vocational based report which must show that the candidate has both the knowledge and skills to apply the issues taught in a workplace of their choice.
This assignment is marked by Nebosh examiners with four submission dates a year in February, May, August and November for delegates to work towards.
Who is the course suitable for?
This is one of the few professional courses available in environmental management, it is aimed primarily at health safety practitioners, who either have responsibility for environmental management or those whose role interlinks with that of the environmental manager. However, it is open to all those who have responsibility for general or a specific aspect of the environment.
Many employers give responsibility for environmental management to the organisation’s safety advisor or manager. Holding the NEBSOH diploma will provide the holder with the confidence to undertake their role, as well as being an indicator of the competence inside and external to the organisation
