Health and Safety remains an ever-popular career choice, with tens of thousands of ‘Health and Safety’ job vacancies available monthly in the UK.
The average salary for a Health and Safety professional is just over £28,000*, making this a good career choice for those looking to train towards a career change.
When it comes to official Health and Safety training, we recommend NEBOSH training, as these qualifications are aimed at those either already working in the industry or considering a full-time career in Health and Safety.
We explore our range of NEBOSH training courses below and compare NEBOSH qualifications with IOSH qualifications, to help you decide which is right for you and your career goals.

NEBOSH is an awarding body, and the NEBOSH General Certificate is highly recognised throughout the industry. It demonstrates that a candidate has a strong understanding of health and safety. NEBOSH training courses are comprehensive in both duration and depth of knowledge and understanding, making it a great choice for those looking for a career in health and safety.
NEBOSH qualifications were developed for health and safety professionals or those wanting to further their career in the industry and achieve professional certifications.
We offer two NEBOSH training courses:
IOSH (Institution of Occupational Safety and Health) is a health and safety membership organisation for professionals, a not-for-profit institution, and an awarding body. IOSH training is typically completed quickly (we offer a 3-day Virtual Classroom course).
