NEBOSH General Certificate in Occupational Health and Safety – Online (Instructor-led)
This live online NEBOSH General Certificate is delivered by a tutor via video conferencing, giving delegates the same recognised qualification as the classroom course without the need to travel.

Course Delivery
Sessions are delivered live by a tutor over video conferencing software, with delegates joining from their own location.
