Martin,

What other qualifications do you have

In what area of safety do you want to work?

The next course after the Certificate would generally be a diploma, but do you have any experience?

You might want to work in safety for 1-2 years prior to starting a diploma, its a lot of hard work and a big step to take if you have not worked in safety before and therefore do not necessarily know if it is going to be right for you.

There are lots of small courses you can do on Risk Assessment, manual handling etc but these would cost.

In my opinion, the only other significant course to do before diploma would be the NEBOSH construction certificate but I would discuss this with your training provider first as I believe there is some cross over between this and the standard cert.

Does this help?

Andy,

Thanks very much for getting back to me, your information is a big help.

I would preferably like to get into the Construction side of health and safety as a trainee.

I am looking for a job to gain experience before i start the diploma, but finding it difficult to achieve this.

Thanks again,

Martin Callaghan
