The NEBOSH Fire Safety and Risk Management Certificate aims to build on the success of the National General Certificate. The Fire Certificate has been designed for managers, supervisors, employee representatives and those embarking on a role with fire safety responsibility and aims to equip holders to contribute to the conduct and review of fire risk assessments and fire preventive and protective measures within most workplaces.
The syllabus is based on National Occupational Standards in Fire Safety at level 3, which has common units with the Emergency Fire Services National Occupational Standards. Therefore the NEBOSH Fire Risk Management Certificate may also be of benefit to fire service personnel developing their underpinning knowledge as part of the Integrated Personal Development System.
The syllabus is divided into two taught units:
The Units are:
- NGC1: The Management of Health and Safety
- FC1: Fire Safety and Risk Management
The first unit of the Fire Risk Management Certificate is drawn from the management of health and safety aspects of the NEBOSH National General Certificate and is examined by the management paper from the National General Certificate. Those who have achieved the National General Certificate or passed Paper NGC1 within the last 5 years will only have to take and pass the second Unit of the Fire Risk Management Certificate, and the Fire Practical Assessment to achieve the new qualification.
The syllabus is divided into fourteen units:
- Health and safety foundations
- Policy
- Organizing for health and safety
- Promoting a positive health and safety culture
- Risk assessment
- Principles of control
- Incident investigation, recording and reporting
- Monitoring, review and audit
- Managing fire safety
- Principles of fire and explosion
- Causes and prevention of fire
- Fire protection in buildings
- Safety of people in the event of a fire
- Fire risk assessment
Examination Details:
The examination comprises two 2-hour written papers and a practical assessment. Each written paper consists of one 'long-answer' question and ten 'short-answer' questions and the practical assessment consists of carrying out a fire risk assessment of a workplace and preparing a short report. All questions are compulsory. The written papers and the practical assessment must be taken at the same centre.
To help maintain flexibility, SHEilds allow students to sit the examinations at their local NEBOSH accredited test centre or a local British Council where available however an additional sitting fee may be applicable.
