Examinations update

NEBOSH’s first ‘Open Book Examinations (OBE)’ took place on the 6th August 2020. We will provide further dates as soon as they become available from NEBOSH.

In the absence of OBE for some examinations and due to Covid 19 we have carefully reviewed our examination processes for written examinations in order to ensure the safety of both our staff and our students when visiting our examination centres.

NEBOSH have provided an examination date for these written examinations in September, however, we have reluctantly made the decision not to hold these examinations at any of our usual venues until we can establish a fully robust Covid secure examination setting for the safety of all.

We are intending to be able to offer written examinations at all venues for the December examinations and information will be provided to our students on how to book onto these in the coming weeks.

When we are in a position to safely run examinations it is highly likely that students will be asked to wear a face covering during their examination to mitigate risks. Any additional instructions on safety measures when visiting any of our centres will be provided with booking confirmations 2 weeks prior to the examinations; this is to ensure that we adhere to applicable government guidance.

Should there be any developments that impact the examinations going ahead, we would transfer any students who have booked on to the examinations to the next available session.
