Further study

NEBOSH qualifications help you develop your health and safety or environmental knowledge and can be a great way to advance your career. The following points may help you decide which NEBOSH qualification is right for you:

  • What you hope to gain from your studies – Are you trying to get a broader view of health and safety topics, or do you need to focus on a specific area such as process safety, workplace stress, or fire?
  • Previous study and experience – If you have already completed a health and safety or environmental qualification, or have experience working in those areas, NEBOSH qualifications can help you build on the knowledge gained previously. Our qualification pages include course details and syllabus guides which can help you decide if the course will complement your existing knowledge.  
  • Your career aspirations – NEBOSH qualifications are often specified in job advertisements. Your career aspirations can therefore influence the qualifications you choose to complete. Completing job searches for roles you'd like to hold in the future can help you see which qualifications employers look for and expect from applicants.  

Information on each NEBOSH qualification can be found on our qualifications page. You may also find our Which Certificate should I take? article helpful.
