Pre-course preparation
No previous environmental knowledge is required although it should be noted that the assessment includes a requirement to write a short report.
Assessment
Unit EC1 is a taught unit assessed by a two-hour written examination. The examination consists of ten ‘short-answer’ questions and one ‘long-answer’ question. All questions are compulsory. Candidate scripts are marked by external examiners appointed by NEBOSH.
Unit EC2 requires the candidate to carry out an environmental review of a workplace or organisation and produce a justified action plan to improve performance. This practical application must be completed and returned to the course provider by a date determined by them and normally within 10 working day of the exam.
Other courses you might look to if this doesn't quite fit what you are looking for are:
