NEBOSH General Certificate Assesment

The NEBOSH National General Certificate course is split into two five-day units. The two separately assessed units can be completed over two consecutive or separate five-day weeks.

Unit NG1 is assessed by an Open Book Exam (OBE). The dates are set by NEBOSH and are usually the 1st Wednesday of the month. The OBE is completed online via their learning platform.

Unit NG2 is assessed by an in-depth risk assessment. Delegates have 2 weeks to complete this after the end of the taught sessions.

Rarely does one encounter an organization that doesn’t just aim to lead you across the finish line but makes the journey itself a knowledgeable adventure.My own triumph in attaining the NEBOSH General Certificate, which initially seemed like a daunting mountain to climb, now serves as a testament to her effective methodology and genuine dedication to student success. It is with utmost confidence and no hesitation that I recommend Moira and SafetyNow Training Ltd. to any individual or organization seeking to advance their knowledge and acumen in health and safety.Thank you, Moira and your team!

Her knowledge is extensive, she truly cares about your success and most importantly she won’t accept your excuses. A high quality trainer and mentor who will see you through to the end. Thank you, Moira!

Having completed this course. I think its more about answering questions, not in the most logical way, but in the most NEBOSH way. Moira focuses on getting you to answer the NEBOSH way, which takes abit of getting used to but is ultimately very successful. If you want to Pass this tough course, this is the right place to come to.

NEBOSH General Certificate FAQs

Which companies do you work with?

SafetyNow has experience in a vast range of sectors, such as manufacturing, engineering, social housing, nuclear, pharmaceutical and petrochemicals. However, we can help practically any company with NEBOSH certification.
Our clients range from SMEs to Blue Chip companies – anyone with managers and supervisors that need to embed safety and health within their teams.

Is the NEBOSH General Certificate worth it?

NEBOSH certification does more than tick boxes for your managers and supervisors. It improves safety throughout your company, provides greater peace of mind, enhances your reputation, and boosts productivity with fewer hours lost due to sickness and accidents.

How long is a NEBOSH certificate valid for?

NEBOSH certificates do not come with an expiry date. Once you have gained one, it will remain valid. That said, unit validity does expire after five years, making regular refresher courses a good idea to stay on top of the latest knowledge and best practices.
