NEBOSH, IOSH and CCNSG in the Classroom, Live Online or by E-learning

ACT Associates has delivered health and safety training since 1991. The range covers fourteen NEBOSH qualifications, from one-day HSE certificates to the General, Fire and Construction certificates, plus IOSH from Working Safely to Safety for Executives and Directors, the ECITB CCNSG safety passport and a City & Guilds Level 6 NVQ Diploma. Classroom courses run at Stourbridge, Newark, Knowsley, Coventry and Coleshill, and most qualifications are also taught live online or available as self-paced e-learning.

NEBOSH General, Fire and Construction certificates
The NEBOSH General Certificate runs in the classroom at Stourbridge, live online and as e-learning, with the International General Certificate by e-learning. The Fire Certificate runs at Stourbridge, live online and by e-learning. Health and Safety Management for Construction runs at Stourbridge, live online and by e-learning, and CSCS accept it towards the Academically Qualified Person card. See all NEBOSH courses.
NEBOSH one-day HSE certificates and awards
Six one-day NEBOSH qualifications run both at Stourbridge and live online: Introduction to Incident Investigation, Managing Risks and Risk Assessment at Work, Manual Handling Risk Assessment, Managing Stress at Work, Working with Wellbeing and Health and Safety Leadership Excellence, the last developed with the HSE for senior leaders. The Award in Environmental Awareness at Work runs live online. Each ends with its own assessment on the day, so delegates leave having completed the qualification.
Environmental and process safety
The NEBOSH Environmental Management Certificate runs in the classroom at Coventry and Coleshill, with live online dates to follow. The NEBOSH HSE Certificate in Process Safety Management is taught live online over four days, aimed at managers and advisers in oil and gas, chemicals and other process industries. The NEBOSH IIRSM Certificate in Managing Risk, a joint qualification with the International Institute of Risk and Safety Management, is available by e-learning.
IOSH: workforce to boardroom
IOSH Managing Safely runs in the classroom at Stourbridge and Knowsley, live online and as e-learning. Working Safely covers the workforce level at Stourbridge, live online and by e-learning. Safety for Executives and Directors addresses the duty carried at board level, at Stourbridge and live online. Browse all IOSH courses.
CCNSG safety passport and Leading a Team Safely
The ECITB CCNSG Safety Passport and its one-day Renewal run at Stourbridge, Newark and Knowsley. The renewal is the shorter route for anyone whose card has not yet expired; once the card lapses, the full two-day course is needed again. Leading a Team Safely (LATS) runs at Stourbridge and Knowsley and is the supervisor-level addition to the passport. In Merseyside, see CCNSG Safety Passport in Merseyside.
City & Guilds Level 6 NVQ Diploma
The City & Guilds NVQ Level 6 Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety Practice, by distance learning. It assesses evidence of what you already do at work rather than examining you, which suits experienced practitioners without a formal qualification. There are no fixed dates because it is portfolio-assessed and starts when you do.
Asbestos and wellbeing e-learning
UKATA-approved Asbestos Awareness as e-learning, for anyone whose work could disturb asbestos in an older building. A Stress Management e-learning course and the NEBOSH Managing Stress at Work certificate by e-learning sit alongside it.
Which centre?
Stourbridge in the West Midlands is the main centre and carries the widest range: NEBOSH, IOSH and CCNSG. Knowsley, on the eastern edge of Liverpool, runs CCNSG, LATS and IOSH Managing Safely for the North West. Newark in Nottinghamshire runs CCNSG for the East Midlands. Coventry and Coleshill carry the Environmental Management Certificate. Runcorn courses are listed with dates to be confirmed. The range differs by site, so check the venue on each listing before booking, or take the same qualification live online.
E-learning or instructor-led for NEBOSH?
E-learning is cheaper and fits around shifts, but completion rates for long qualifications are consistently lower without a fixed timetable. For the General Certificate, which runs over several weeks, be honest about whether you will sustain independent study. If you have completed self-paced study successfully before, e-learning works well; if you have started and abandoned online courses, the instructor-led format is worth the difference.
