The two qualifications every employer recognises, delivered by a NEBOSH Gold Learning Partner and IOSH approved provider, in the classroom, live online and onsite for teams.
Who is it for
Where most teams start IOSH Working Safely
One day for everybody on the payroll rather than the people managing them. The same ideas as Managing Safely, pitched at the person doing the work.

And for everybody else
At this level there is one classroom route, and then the eLearning library: asbestos awareness, manual handling, fire safety, COSHH and the rest, started the same day.

Health and safety training FAQs
It depends on your role. Employees and operatives usually start with IOSH Working Safely or the one-day CITB Health & Safety Awareness (also the route to a Green CSCS card). Supervisors take SSSTS or IOSH Managing Safely; site managers need SMSTS; anyone moving into a health and safety role should look at the NEBOSH National General Certificate. Use the finder at the top of this page or call 0330 124 2165.
IOSH Managing Safely is a 3-day course for managers and supervisors who need practical, working knowledge of health and safety. The NEBOSH National General Certificate is a Level 3 qualification (10 taught days plus assessment) for those who want a recognised qualification and a route into a health and safety career. Many organisations use IOSH for line managers and NEBOSH for their safety leads.
Labourers need the Green card (CITB Health & Safety Awareness plus the HSE test). Skilled trades need Blue (NVQ Level 2) or Gold (NVQ Level 3). Supervisors need the Gold Supervisory card, site managers the Black card, and degree-qualified or chartered professionals a White AQP or PQP card. Red cards are temporary while you complete your qualification. The job finder above walks you through it.
Prices depend on the course and delivery route. eLearning courses start from under £30, one-day classroom courses such as CITB HSA from around £150 + VAT, IOSH Managing Safely and SMSTS are priced per delegate with group discounts, and onsite delivery is quoted per day for the whole group. Interest-free instalments are available through Klarna, and ELCAS funding for eligible service leavers.
