This will be the first, in-person UK opportunity for employers and experts to discover the new qualification. And, in a new venture for the charity, visitors will be granted exclusive access to a yet-to-be unveiled new course.

One of the most popular health and safety qualifications in the world – the NEBOSH General Certificate in Occupational Health and Safety – was updated in September. Having consulted thousands of sector experts, the new-look specification has been streamlined and bring a greater focus on risk assessment.  

In a busy exhibition, NEBOSH will also be joined by the Health and Safety Executive for a session entitled ‘Give PEACE a Chance’ in the HSM Knowledge Exchange at 13:15 – 13:45 on 8 October. This interactive session will explore the use of the P.E.A.C.E. model in incident investigation and the principles of what good witness interviews look like.

NEBOSH Chief Executive, Ian Taylor, said: “I’m hugely excited by Health and Safety North. It gives us the opportunity to showcase our new-look General Certificates for the very first time as well as reveal a brand new course that I think will really shake up the industry.

“As NEBOSH celebrates its 40^th anniversary there’s no better time to be part of the success story and take one of our qualifications.”

Health and Safety North takes place at Event City, Manchester on 8 – 9 October 2019 where NEBOSH is exhibiting on stand N28. Click here to register for your free place!

Visitors who take an on-stand photo and share it with NEBOSH’s anniversary hashtag -  #NEBOSH40 - will also be entered into a prize draw to win paid-for study for new National General Certificate qualification.
