good standard of written English.
|
|
| Course Content |
|
The syllabus comprises four core units:
|
|
| Unit IA: |
International management of health and safety |
| Unit IB: |
International control of hazardous agents in the workplace |
| Unit IC: |
International workplace and work equipment safety |
| Unit ID: |
International application of health and safety theory and practice |
|
|
| Examinations |
|
Units IA, IB and IC are separately assessed by written examination. The examinations are held twice a year in January and July.
Examinations can be taken in the UK or overseas by
arrangement with the British Council Office or a local
University.
|
|
| Workplace Based Assignment (Unit ID) |
| Unit ID 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. Overseas students are sent
the course materials by courier. Students are encouraged to complete the coursework and submit this to ATM Safety & Environment for marking by post or email. The
coursework does not count towards the award.
|
|
| Health and Safety Executive (HSE) Reference Material |
| HSE publications are free and available from the HSE website and are an extremely useful source of reference for the course
and for completing the Unit D assignment. Priced publications were previously available through membership of
HSE Direct but this closed at the end of 2009 following the HSE Board’s decision to make the previously priced
publications available free of charge from the HSE website.
|
|
| e-Tutorials |
|
ATM Safety & Environment send
emails to international students on a regular basis to keep them up to date
with course requirements, and to provide additional learning materials such as
powerpoint slides. In between
these dates students can contact their tutor by telephone or email and must
submit
coursework for marking by the submission dates. Students
resident in the UK may attend the tutorials put on for the National Diploma.
