Hi  everyone, i'm looking for some advice, approxemetly 18months ago I undertook the NEBOSH NCC training, I took my exam but failed, since then I have moved employers and was now toying if I should go back and complete what I started, my question is,  Do I have to start at the begining of the training or can i just book another exam online?

Any advice would be very much appreicated.

You can just retake the exam. Your intial registration is valid for 5 years, so thats how long you have for retakes. Just contact your course provider and ask for a retake. They will charge you for it, usually just the NEBOSH fees and you should be good to go.

Did you past the Practice Assessment? If you did, it remains valid for the 5 years so you only have to do the exam.

However, are you ready for it? Do you understand why the failed last time?

I would suggest you discuss this with the training provider. They may be able to provide you with information and ongoing support, without you having to pay to retake the full course.

Hope it helps,

Tony.
