Health & Safety News

Here at SQT we run a number of Occupational Health & Safety courses accredited by NEBOSH, the National Examination Board in Occupational Safety and Health. NEBOSH is based in Leicester in the UK.

This year NEBOSH is celebrating its 30 year anniversary.

NEBOSH was formed in 1979 as an independent examining board and awarding body with charitable status. It offers a comprehensive range of globally-recognised, vocationally-related qualifications designed to meet the health, safety, environmental and risk management needs of all places of work in both the private and public sectors.

We provide the NEBOSH International Certificate and Diploma in Occupational Health & Safety. Both courses, though demanding, have proven to be very popular here in Ireland. NEBOSH qualifications are recognised by the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH), the International Institute of Risk and Safety Management (IIRSM) and the Institute of Environmental Management and Assessment (IEMA).

According to the NEBOSH website, courses leading to NEBOSH qualifications attract around 30,000 candidates annually and are offered by over 400 course providers in 80 countries around the world.

Being one of their course providers, SQT was invited to their 30 year celebration at the House of Lords this evening. Unfortunately due to work commitments here, we wont be able to attend.

Wishing NEBOSH many more years of successful operation.
