About the course

The NEBOSH International Certificate in Construction Health and Safety is a health and safety award for the construction industry. NEBOSH has chosen TWI to pilot this program, subject to accreditation.

The combination of both theoretical and practical application within the syllabus to manage both health and safety from planning, design and construction to use and demolition ensures those awarded with the certificate are well capable to meet challenges to make a difference.

You May Already Be One Step Towards Gaining A NEBOSH International Certificate In Construction Health & Safety?

Unit IGC1 (Management of health and safety) is common to the NEBOSH International Certificate. This enables delegates to combine Unit IGC1 to gain full qualification. Delegates do not need to re-sit Unit IGC1 already successfully achieved providing they were gained within the last five years.

Who should register for this course?

The NEBOSH International Construction Certificate is aimed at Supervisors, Managers and CDM   Co-Ordinators within the construction industry who are required to ensure that activities under their control are undertaken safely. It is likely to prove useful for those concerned with the management of buildings who may need to ensure that contractors are working safely.

The qualification is also appropriate for supervisors and managers working in other industries where temporary workplaces are a feature of their activities.

Course Content:

The NEBOSH International Construction Certificate covers Management of Health & Safety, identification and control of a broad range of construction workplace hazards, and the means by which they can be controlled. 

No previous health and safety knowledge is required although it is advisable that candidates do have an understanding of the basic practical aspects of the construction industry. 

The qualification has been unitised and the qualification is divided into three units, each of which is assessed separately: 

• Management of health and safety (IGC1)
• Managing and controlling hazards in construction activities (ICC1)
• Health and safety practical application (ICC2)

How Is The Course Assessed?

Delegates are assessed with written examinations for IGC1 and ICC1. ICC2 is assessed by a practical examination testing the ability to identify health and safety issues in a construction workplace. ICC2 needs to be taken within 14 days of a written examination.

A unit certificate is issued denoting successful achievement of each unit. A certificate award parchment is issued on successful completion of all three units.
