EXAMINATION
The course is
assessed by:
- A short written/objective
multiple-choice paper.
- A workplace based written
assignment.
Delegates who
attend and successfully complete both the practical and written
assessments, will be awarded the Managing Safety certificate issued by
the Institute of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH) in the
UK.
The
practical assessment must be completed in the delegate’s
workplace and submitted within two weeks of completing the course. A
minimum pass grade of 70% is required for certification.
ADDITIONAL
INFORMATION
It is well
recognised by all parties that time can erode both knowledge
and skill.
To overcome
this, for delegates
who took the full IOSH Managing Safely course within the last three
years, IOSH is now recommending that they sit a
re-certification course prior to the end of their
three-year period.
For those who
took the full
course more than three years ago, IOSH recommends that they
undertake the full 4-day course.
This course can also be presented as an in-company package at our
client's preferred location. For more details, please contact
us.
