Designed for high hazard industries where process safety management is critically important.

Course Overview

NEBOSH joined forces with Great Britain’s Health and Safety Regulator, the Health and Safety Executive (HSE), to develop the NEBOSH HSE Certificate in Process Safety Management.

This process safety management qualification is the result of the unique collaboration which combines the advanced technical ‘high hazard’ expertise of HSE with NEBOSH’s ability to deliver strong vocational OSH qualifications. It is designed to equip delegates with a broad understanding of the accepted principles and recognised industrial practices for the management of process risk. This will ensure that they can recognise and contribute to the control of process safety hazards.

NEBOSH qualifications are developed based on extensive research with health and safety professionals, employers, professional bodies and regulators to ensure they are relevant and rigorous as well as achievable and practical.

“It is a real pleasure to co-develop this new qualification with NEBOSH. We hope that by combining our strengths, this qualification will help to significantly improve understanding and further reduce health and safety risks in the process industries worldwide.”

Karen Russ – Science and Commercial Director – Health & Safety Executive (HSE)

Who is it for?

People from all around the world who work in process industries such as oil and gas, chemicals, plastics and pharmaceuticals. It is ideal for managers, safety representatives and health and safety advisors working within the process industries, both inside and outside the UK.

It is not designed for chemical and process safety engineers experienced in the specification, design and maintenance of process plant.

It is recommended that learners should already have an underpinning knowledge of health and safety issues, and many will have gained another NEBOSH qualification.

How will it help employers?

The NEBOSH HSE Certificate in Process Safety management benefits companies working in the process industries such as oil and gas, chemicals, plastics and pharmaceuticals who are seeking to implement effective process safety management.

It is used effectively by industry to help keep people safe from injury and loss of life. For employers this also means protecting valuable assets and avoiding prosecution, litigation and loss of reputation.

People who hold the NEBOSH HSE Certificate in Process Safety Management have practical knowledge that brings real value, wherever they operate. This can help employers achieve international standards and can even help win new business.

Assessment

Unit PSM1 is a taught unit assessed by an online 90 minute multiple-choice exam.

The question paper consists of 40 multiple-choice questions; 10 of the questions are extended scenario questions which will be randomly distributed throughout the paper. Each question is worth one mark and has one correct and three incorrect responses available. The question paper covers the whole syllabus with at least one question per element and all questions are compulsory.

The multiple choice assessment must be accessed and completed via NEBOSH’s Online Assessment Platform and completed within a 24-hour assessment window. Learners can begin their assessment at any time within the 24-hour window but, once they have started the assessment, they must complete it within the designated time frame for the unit (90 minutes for PSM1). These assessments will also be remotely proctored to ensure their integrity.

Online multiple choice assessments [MCQ] take place monthly – upcoming dates can be found here: https://www.nebosh.org.uk/digital-assessments/online-multiple-choice/

I attended one of Woodward's NEBOSH packages that encompassed the National General Certificate, Construction... certificate, Fire Certificate and Environmental Certificate. The package was very competitively priced and spaced out over a suitable period of weeks which allowed time for consolidation and coursework prior to the next module starting.The standard of instruction was excellent with all of the lecturers being highly qualified, experienced and knowledgeable. They were enthusiastic and used a range of different learning techniques which were appropriate to the subject being taught. They encouraged candidates to think around the subject and to examine Health and Safety issues critically and objectively.The modules were very thorough in covering the syllabus and providing candidates with the necessary knowledge. They also encouraged candidates to carry out research and further study in their own time in order to achieve a higher standard of pass. The lecturers provided guidance on what to revise/research and signposted candidates to numerous websites and journals which proved to be very useful.Woodward were very efficient and helpful with the application process and with providing admin support throughout the course and afterwards. The catering was very good with a wide selection of sandwiches and baked potatoes on offer as well as cookies, biscuits, muffins and more at break times along with tea, coffee and cordials.An added benefit is Woodward's associate scheme which provides an excellent opportunity for successful candidates who wish to deliver training to use Woodward's accreditation.read more

I undertook a NEBOSH package through Woodward as part of my resettlement courses which included completing five... certificates. All the staff at Woodward were very professional throughout, and offered great value for money. All course documentation and relevant literature was provided quickly and the instruction given during the course modules was exceptionally high.
