To achieve the NEBOSH National Construction Certificate you must complete all 3 units (NG1, NCC1 & NCC2) within 5 years.

If you have been awarded the NEBOSH National General Certificate or NEBOSH National Fire Certificate in the last 5 years you will be exempt from Unit NG1 and can simply 'top up' by completing Unit NCC1 and the practical assessment (Unit NCC2).

RRC are delighted to have been evaluated as a NEBOSH Gold Learning Partner, the highest level in the NEBOSH Learning Partner programme.

NEBOSH introduced a Learning Partner Programme in September 2019 which recognises those Learning Partners that provide learners with the best possible learning experience.

• Create a learning environment that is engaging and encourages interaction that is appropriate for the course and type of delivery
• Provide accurate course materials and continually update and improve them
• Ensure tutors are qualified, knowledgeable, competent and engaging
• Give learners feedback on their progress and provide appropriate support
• Review course delivery and learner feedback and action as necessary
