In 2020/21 there were almost 12,000 business premises damaged, 14 fatalities, and 743 casualties caused by fires. All of these fires were preventable and lives could have been saved with the right fire safety management in place, but not all businesses are aware of what their responsibilities are or what they have to do. Also with the new Fire Safety Act 2021 due to come into force after the Grenfell Tower inquiry, which has introduced more stringent measures for fire safety especially around the role of responsible persons, there’s no better time to learn about fire safety for both your business and for your home.
Having someone in your business who has the NEBOSH Fire Certificate qualification will satisfy the need to have a competent person in fire safety management who can advise the business on:
- Who should be the responsible person and what their role and responsibilities are
- The consequences for not having adequate measures in place
- Principles of fire & explosion
- Fire hazards
- Fire risk assessment
- Fire prevention & protection
- Emergency planning
- Fire detection systems
- Fire warning systems
- Fire evacuation
- Fire fighting
- Best practice for fire safety techniques
- How good fire safety management can benefit your business
Personally, the NEBOSH Fire Certificate will provide you with the knowledge to provide expert fire safety advice, advance your career and do some good. The course is also fascinating and a brilliant learning experience. Here is some of the feedback from our recent learners:
“Just a really comprehensive insight into fire safety with a mix of tutors from different backgrounds bringing the whole course together”
“I enjoyed the course. I found the subject matter interesting and the delivery was good. The guest tutors are experts in their fields and really added real life experience to the course.”
“For anyone wanting Nebosh training and qualifications, this is the best organisation to study with. Totally professional approach and always offering assistance and motivation. I am really grateful for all the additional support I have received from the tutors.”
“I enjoyed the course, I found in the workplace I have a greater knowledge of how fire can occur not just from my knowledge of waste fire but the office and workplace environment in respect to the people aspect which is more important completing the site risk assessment further reinforced my learning and confidence.”
“I most enjoyed the practical day in Consett. Enjoyed the enforcement, evacuation, emergency planning, vulnerable people sessions.”
Throughout this year we are offering both live virtual lessons and classroom sessions. All learners will be offered the opportunity to spend the day going through the practical side of fire management within buildings with our fantastic tutor who has many years of experience serving with the fire service. We will also provide coaching and support for both your open book exams and fire risk assessment practical assessment and are now working to the new NEBOSH syllabus.
Our recent cohort of learners have achieved an impressive pass rate of 100% for the open book exam when the national average pass rate is 74% and 90% for the practical assessment compared to the national average pass rate of 46%. They also scored us a fantastic 9.7 out of 10 for support from the tutorial team.
