Course Introduction

NEBOSH National Diploma Distance Learning training courses are the UK’s premier qualification specifically designed for health and safety professionals. 


The NEBOSH National Diploma Distance Learning training course is intended for people that want to forge a career in health and safety – for example as a health and safety advisor, manager or consultant. It is also provides a basis for progressing to postgraduate study.

Many UK universities offer MSc programmes that accept the NEBOSH National Diploma as a full or partial entry requirement.

 The NEBOSH National Diploma Distance Learning builds directly on the foundation knowledge gained in the NEBOSH General Certificate or the NEBOSH Construction Certificate. 

The qualification meets the academic requirements for Graduate Membership (Grad IOSH) of the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH). With further experience and professional development, Chartered Safety Practitioner (CMIOSH) status can then be attained. NEBOSH National Diploma Distance Learning training courses are also accepted by the International Institute of Risk and Safety Management (IIRSM) as meeting the academic requirements for full membership (MIIRSM).

 Holders of the NEBOSH National Diploma Distance Learning may use the designatory letters “DipNEBOSH” after their name. The qualification is accredited at Level 6 within the National Qualification Framework. Students can study in their own time at their own pace.

For people who do not want to use computers or the internet so much, the NEBOSH National Diploma training course can be conducted as a traditional distance learning course by using textbooks, written assignments and telephone support. However, for people that want to embrace the internet as a learning medium, a huge variety of extra support methods are available:

A Facebook Group especially for Distance Learners – the intention is to promote discussion and contact between learners so that experiences and knowledge can be shared.

A Youtube channel including video clips, video presentations etc. to support learning.

Podcasts which can be downloaded and used for revision when traveling or listening to an mp3 player etc.

Email and Skype support from expert tutors, including regular “Skype Surgeries” where tutors will be online at regular advertised times to discuss particular topics
