Total training offering
September 8th 2008

With the addition of NEBOSH qualifications to its established range of courses, the British Safety Council decided to commission an in-depth study of opinions. The aim was to fully understand what health and safety professionals really want from a training provider.

Importantly the survey showed that professionals prefer more practical content in their courses, and would greatly benefit from continuing support and post-course follow up care.

Continuing care is an area that the BSC has been proactively addressing through its training course provision as it considers it essential to provide ongoing support to those who have taken training. Having also just become an accredited centre for the provision of the NEBOSH National General Certificate, the BSC is offering support to all its candidates with a personalised mentoring programme. This means that candidates will get support and guidance from the moment a course is booked, through to taking the examinations and, importantly, the transition back into the workplace.

The BSC says it is the only health and safety training organisation to offer a fully comprehensive suite of accredited qualifications to meet the needs of health and safety professionals across all levels, sectors and disciplines. In offering both the NEBOSH National General Certificate (NGC) and the British Safety Council Level 3 Certificate in Occupational Safety and Health (CertOSH), candidates can get unbiased advice and guidance in their choice of qualifications.

NEBOSH courses begin in October. Candidates wishing to find out more or to register should visit the BSC website at: www.britsafe.org/ngc
