NEBOSH to Showcase New-Look National General Certificate at Health and Safety North

Get the first look at the new-look National General Certificate at Health and Safety North this October.

This will be the first, in-person UK opportunity for employers and experts to discover the new qualification. And, in a new venture for the charity, visitors will be granted exclusive access to a yet-to-be unveiled new course.

One of the most popular health and safety qualifications in the world – the NEBOSH General Certificate in Occupational Health and Safety – was updated in September. Having consulted thousands of sector experts, the new-look specification has been streamlined and bring a greater focus on risk assessment.  

In a busy exhibition, NEBOSH will also be joined by the Health and Safety Executive for a session entitled ‘Give PEACE a Chance’ in the HSM Knowledge Exchange at 13:15 – 13:45 on 8 October. This interactive session will explore the use of the P.E.A.C.E. model in incident investigation and the principles of what good witness interviews look like.

NEBOSH Chief Executive, Ian Taylor, said: “I’m hugely excited by Health and Safety North. It gives us the opportunity to showcase our new-look General Certificates for the very first time as well as reveal a brand new course that I think will really shake up the industry.

“As NEBOSH celebrates its 40th anniversary there’s no better time to be part of the success story and take one of our qualifications.”

Health and Safety North takes place at Event City, Manchester on 8 – 9 October 2019 where NEBOSH is exhibiting on stand N28.

Visitors who take an on-stand photo and share it with NEBOSH’s anniversary hashtag –  #NEBOSH40 – will also be entered into a prize draw to win paid-for study for new National General Certificate qualification.
