The Diploma is designed for health and safety professionals who require a high degree of managerial and technical competence to advise on effective management of risk across the range of employment sectors. The NEBOSH National Diploma is at level 6 in the National Qualification Framework, and is accredited by QCA, CEA and DELLS. The NEBOSH National Diploma is recognised by IOSH - the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health - as fulfilling the academic requirements for Chartered Membership (CMIOSH) conferring the official title of Chartered Safety and Health Practitioner. The International Institute of Risk and Safety Management (IIRSM) also accept it as meeting their requirements for full membership.

Entry Qualifications
There are no mandatory pre-entry qualifications required for the Diploma but candidates are advise to obtain a level 3 qualification such as the NEBOSH General Certificate before starting a Diploma programme. All candidates should have a good standard of written English.
Course Content
The syllabus comprises four core units:
- Unit A: Managing health and safety
- Unit B:  Hazardous agents in the workplace
- Unit C:  Workplace and work equipment safety
- Unit D:  Application of health and safety theory and practice
Examinations
Units A - C are separately assessed by written examination. The examinations are held twice a year in January and July. ATM Safety & Environment hold examinations in Coventry but if required it is often possible to sit examinations elsewhere in the UK. Overseas students can take examinations at any local British Council Office and at other venues by special arrangement.
Workplace Based Assignment (Unit D)
Unit D is a workplace based assignment. It consists of an audit of a health and safety management system and two risk assessments, one covering hazardous agents and the other workplace or work equipment hazards. The assignment can be submitted to NEBOSH in either March or September.
Distance Learning Materials
Students are provided with notes, coursework and some key text books. UK students are sent the course materials for the first unit, the other two units are given out at the tutorials. Overseas students are sent all three units. Students are encouraged to complete the coursework and submit this to ATM Safety & Environment for marking by post or email by the submission dates. The coursework does not count towards the award. Students should expect to spend about two hours a week studying the course materials and completing coursework.
