Minimum entry requirements
- No previous health and safety or fire safety knowledge is required although it should be noted that the assessment includes a requirement to write a short report.

- NEBOSH recommends that candidates undertaking this qualification should reach a minimum standard of English equivalent to an International English Language Testing System (IELTS) score of 6.0 or higher in IELTS tests.
What you study
The qualification is divided into three units, each of which is assessed separately:
- Management of Health and Safety (NGC1)*
- Fire Safety and Risk Management (FC1)
- Practical Fire Risk Assessment (FC2)
*Students who have already passed NGC1 as part of a previous NEBOSH qualification do not need to retake NGC1, provided it was achieved within the last 5 years. If you achieved NGC1 more than 5 years ago, you may re-sit the examination without needing to attend a taught course.
Students will receive a unit certificate for each unit passed. On successful completion of all units making up the NEBOSH National Certificate in Fire Safety and Risk Management, the student will receive the overall Qualification Parchment. This modular structure provides greater flexibility enabling students to choose to study individual units in any order over a five year period.
