About Woodward Safety Health and Environment Ltd
Woodward Safety Heath and Environment Ltd is a West Cumbrian family led SME specialising in the delivery of accredited NEBOSH, IOSH and Highfield training courses UK wide.
From Humble Beginnings
“We believe people should be safe at work”
Woodward SHE Ltd has been trying to make this simple statement a reality since it was founded by Tom (snr) way back in 1992. We are not about selling certificates or ticking boxes. We are a caring family firm with traditional Cumbrian values who want to give our learners the skills and knowledge to keep themselves, their colleagues, customers, contractors and others safe in the workplace.
We have over 25 years experience and expertise in training in health and safety management and environmental management. We hope that we can use that experience and expertise not only to help you to pass your course and gain your qualification but also to enhance your career.
Our pass rates for NEBOSH Certificate courses are well over 90 percent and other courses results are well above the national average. With very few exceptions our NEBOSH National Diploma learners have moved into well paid health and safety positions. All the qualifications offered by Woodward SHE are nationally recognised and accredited.
Our full terms and conditions can be found in our brochure.
Safety Is More Than Statistics
Never forget the impact a single incident can have on a person, their families and loved ones and the wider community.
Our Award Winning Students
Our learners regularly win awards for their success with us, several have even won the highly sought after NEBOSH Best Candidate Awards. Click here for more details.
Our Associate Trainer Scheme
The Woodward Associate scheme is a way that a trainer; either an individual trainer or a trainer working within an organisation, can register with us to deliver a whole range of IOSH and Highfield (HABC) courses under the Woodward banner. Several of our senior associates have even progressed on to delivering their own in-house NEBOSH courses.
Through this scheme we want to help you ensure your company has cost-effective access to the training it needs to keep people safe.
There are no up-front fees to join the scheme and we will support you throughout the trainer approval process. Click here for more details.
Our Woodward Alumni Network
We wanted to build a community of qualified Health and Safety practitioners, who could support each others career development, which is why we launched our Woodward Alumni Network.
This has been a very exciting development and the feedback from our members has been very good. Click here for more details.
