Success stories
Don’t just take our word for it. Check out some of our success stories from the 100’s of students who are now happily working in their new career.
I started the traineeship because, despite being capable of teaching myself, I knew I needed a set path of learning and access to the real life experience of professionals to turn that knowledge into a career.
I started the traineeship because I saw IT as a reliable and rewarding career. I also wanted a skill which would allow me to be creative and take initiative on my own projects, but also work collaboratively with other like-minded people.
Traineeship overview
You will have 1-year of unlimited online access to complete the Traineeship.
The training program is broken down into 4 easy steps:
Before beginning the second step, you will need to decide whether you would like to study the NEBOSH General, Construction, or the Fire Safety course, depending on the path that you intend your career to follow.
The course will again be online and delivered via video tutorials, quizzes, and presentations with expert tutor support on hand if required.
NEBOSH set the bar for high standards within the industry so is a sought after qualification not only in the UK, but across the globe. Becoming NEBOSH certified truly sets you apart from the rest of the field.
The third step focuses on the practical application of what you have learned during your studies. You will write a series of risk assessments that need to be up to a workplace standard. This is not only to ensure that you have retained all that you have learned, but is also a requirement to gain your NEBOSH certification.
Once these are completed, you will move on to your official exams.
The final step will be to sit the official NEBOSH exams, which we will book for you once you are ready.
The exams can be sat in one of the official NEBOSH testing centres, or online. (Online only currently available for general certificate).
Once your exams have been passed, you will be ready to move onto the recruitment stage and start your new career within the world of Health & Safety.
You will begin by studying the IOSH Managing Safely online course. Here you will learn about the basics of health and safety such as risk assessments and control, health and safety legislation, incident investigation, and environmental protection. This will lay the perfect foundation of knowledge from where you will be able to further build your health and safety career.
The course is delivered online in its entirety through video tutorials, quizzes, and presentations. You will be given access to your own learning portal which allows you to study from anywhere.
Upon completion of the course modules, you will sit a short, multiple choice quiz which will result in your first Health & Safety qualification.
