I wonder if anyone can help me?
I am a HSE Advisor and live in the far north of Scotland (north of Inverness). I wish to do the NVQ 4 in OHS, but am having no luck.
Based on previous threads, I have tried Telford and Wolverhampton (who's prices are reasonable), but they won't take me on because of the distance. SCOSH at Strathclyde do a Postgraduate Certificate which will gain me MIOSH, but I have to wait until October (and it is also quite expensive). Can anyone lead me in the right direction? I would be willing to travel for assessments every couple of months or so.
regards, Keith Morison

I am considering NVQ4 and have details of a Dundee based company. They have dealt with two of my colleagues, and they seem to be getting on okay.
I will e-mail you the contact details

Blackpool college is even cheaper than Wolverhampton and not as far for you to travel. We have only just started ours -Dec03, so you won't be far behind.

Hello Keith,
I too am having problems with NVQ 4 (I live in the North East of England), but this morning I received a pack from Balgownie Technology Centre in Aberdeen (NGT Safety Management). They offer this level at £1,395+VAT. Is this closer to you?

Have you tried Aberdeen College.
In my time in Aberdeen they were expanding their H&S courses (NEBOSH cert and Dip at that time) so they might do SVQ.
Just remebered they also run a distance learning risk assessment course - so this might mean they do others as well.
The tel no. I had was 01224 612000 - not sure if it's still viable
Good luck
Lilian
