NEBOSH & HSE Certificate in Process Safety Management
NEBOSH has collaborated with Great Britain’s Health and Safety Regulator, the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), to develop the NEBOSH HSE Certificate in Process Safety Management.
This process safety management qualification is the result of the unique collaboration which combines the advanced technical ‘high hazard’ expertise of HSE with NEBOSH’s ability to deliver strong vocational OSH qualifications.
This qualification is designed to equip delegates with a broad understanding of the accepted principles and recognised industrial practices for the management of process risk. This will ensure that they can recognise and contribute to the control of process safety hazards.
Who is it for?
People from all around the world who work in process industries such as oil and gas, chemicals, plastics and pharmaceuticals. Ideal for managers, safety representatives and health and safety advisors working within the process industries, both inside and outside the UK. It is not designed for chemical and process safety engineers experienced in the specification, design and maintenance of process plant. It is recommended that learners should already have an underpinning knowledge of health and safety issues, and many will have gained another NEBOSH qualification (such as: Health and safety at work, International General Certificate)
