Who Should Attend

Managers and supervisory staff who need to ensure that their organisation meets its responsibilities under fire safety legislation. This qualification will equip holders to carry out fire risk assessments of most workplaces and identify the range of fire protective and preventative measures required.

Unit FC2 is assessed by one three-hour practical examination undertaken within the candidate’s own workplace, to be taken within 14 days of the date of the FC1 written papers. The practical examination is internally assessed by the course provider and externally moderated by NEBOSH.

To achieve the full NEBOSH Fire Certificate, candidates will also need to attend the NGC1 module. Contact us for further information, dates and prices.
