About NEBOSH HSE Certificate in Health and Safety Leadership Excellence course

The NEBOSH HSE Certificate in Health and Safety Leadership Excellence is a specialist qualification developed by NEBOSH in collaboration with the UK Health and Safety Executive (HSE). It is designed for senior leaders, directors, managers, and those aspiring to leadership roles who have the ability to influence health and safety performance within their organisation.

Rather than focusing on technical health and safety knowledge, this course concentrates on leadership behaviours, decision-making, and organisational culture. It explores how leaders shape attitudes, influence behaviour, and create environments where people feel supported, trusted, and empowered to work safely.

Across the day, learners explore the five HSE leadership values, supported by real-world discussion, reflection, and practical application. Topics include building a shared health and safety vision, understanding moral, legal and business drivers, gaining assurance that health and safety is being managed effectively, and positively influencing safety culture.

The course also addresses human factors and decision-making, including human failure, mental shortcuts, bias, habits, and beliefs, helping leaders understand why people behave the way they do at work.

Assessment is embedded throughout the day using reflective statements, encouraging learners to evaluate their own leadership approach and commit to realistic improvements that can be applied immediately in their organisation.
