The NEBOSH National General Certificate meets the academic requirements for Technician membership (TechIOSH) of the Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH) and Associate membership (AIIRSM) of the International Institute of Risk and Safety Management (IIRSM).

Course Content

The NEBOSH National General Certificate covers the main legal requirements for health and safety in the UK, identification and control of workplace hazards, and the practical application of this knowledge. The syllabus is mapped to the National Occupational Standards for Health and Safety owned by ENTO. No previous health and safety knowledge is required but delegates should note the assessment includes a requirement to write a short report.

The qualification is divided into two units, each of which is assessed separately:

We deliver our NEBOSH General Certificate course as two separate one week blocks of instruction and then the Open Book Exam (OBE) which candidates have 24 hours to complete, making our model an 11 day process.  This may be slightly longer than other training providers, but has been developed to be able to maximise your chances of a first time pass.

Course times may vary due to a number of reasons, we set start and finish times to ensure candidates block out this time, it is vary rare that these time will be exceeded

Typical fees for open courses are £1,814 plus VAT per person at our training rooms in Rainham Kent and Earlsfield London.  

Included in the training cost:

  • Exam fees
  • Lighthouse Safety NEBOSH Course Guide

It pays to be selective when booking training courses because not all training providers are what they appear to be.  When booking a NEBOSH General Course you need to feel assured that your training provider is fully accredited to provide that training and is not then going to sub-contract the work.  Lighthouse Safety Training are fully accredited by NEBOSH to provide the NEBOSH General course and proof of that accreditation can be seen on our accreditation page.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I can’t recommend Lighthouse Training Ltd highly enough for anyone looking to take on the NEBOSH General Certificate.

From start to finish, the experience was incredibly professional, supportive, and well-structured. The course content was clear, engaging, and delivered in a way that made even the more complex topics easier to understand and apply.

A special thanks to my tutor, Tendai, whose expert guidance, patience, and encouragement played a huge part in helping me pass both NG1 and NG2. His ability to break down key concepts and keep sessions engaging was second to none. Also, a big thank you to Louise and the entire Lighthouse team for their ongoing support behind the scenes — always responsive, friendly and very helpful. If you’re considering NEBOSH or any health and safety training, I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Lighthouse.

The NEBOSH course was such a great overview of health and safety covering law, regulations and regulations of so many topics that are factors of health and safety.

Completing the day release course enabled me to continue my day to day role and not take 2 block weeks away from work. Each session we recapped the training.

The course was comprehensive and delivered in a human way with lots of class/candidate participation. Great communication from Lighthouse and good facilities

I just wanted to say a big thanks for the training you have given during the NEBOSH general, I have learnt more than I ever thought I was going to, your interactive and energetic teaching style has made a course that if I’m honest I wasn’t too keen on doing, into an enjoyable experience. All the additional training aids you have created were a massive help and show you have a real passion for what you do. I have already been singing lighthouse’s praises to my company and I can only hope that it leads to you guys being used regularly by Innogy.
In all honesty, pass or fail you have helped me be better at keeping my guys safe. That, in my mind makes the course a massive success for me, irrelevant of result.

Lighthouse safety Training is a very professional, very focused and knowledgeable training provider. Our tutor, Harry Collins, gave 110% effort into making the course as enjoyable as possible and giving us the best possible chance to achieve the course. He sent us Podcasts, set us homework every night, sent us slides from the previous day to study all in his free time. I can’t praise him and his organisation enough.
