contractors are working safely. The qualification meets the academic
requirements for Technician Membership (Tech IOSH) of Institution of
Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH) and Associate membership (AIIRSM) of the

| Practical Assessment (ICC2) |
|
ICC2 is assessed by submission of a written report that is marked by ATM Safety & Environment and moderated by NEBOSH. The practical assessment
must be carried out on a site carrying out a construction activity. This site
should normally be the candidates own workplace but where this is not possible
the candidate can arrange to observe a construction activity on another site.
The ICC2 report must be submitted to ATM Safety & Environment within 10 days of the written
examinations. The practical assessment does not need to be supervised, but
must be prepared in accordance with the NEBOSH ICC2 guidance, which will be
issued to candidates on enrolment, and the candidate must sign a declaration
that the submission is their own work . |
|
| Course Fees |
| The course fee
is £400 (+VAT) for candidates taking all three units of the
qualification. For candidates who have already gained Unit IGC1 of the NEBOSH
International
Certificate or Unit IA of the International Diploma within 5 years prior to
the examination date, the course fee is reduced to £300.
Exam registration fees are £130 for all 3 units (excluding venue
invigilation fee, payable locally to British Council or alternative
institution), £105 for candidates sitting
