Duration
The duration of the course is 42 hours (7 days) and we usually run the course over 3 weeks, with the examination on the morning of the seventh day. We usually aim to start the course at 9.00am each day and therefore taking into account time for refreshment and lunch breaks, the course usually finishes around 4.30pm each day.


Assessment
The examination consists of a 2½ hour written paper. The paper consists of two parts, A and B. Part A consists of 5 structured questions, worth 15 marks each. All questions must be answered. Part B consists of 3 response questions worth 25 marks. Only 1 question must be answered. Candidates must also submit 2 workplace assignments prior to the examination. Candidates can only sit the examination if the two assignments pass the required mark. Candidates who achieve an overall mark between 60 – 74% will achieve a pass grade, those achieving 75 – 89% will be awarded a merit grade and those achieving 90% and above will be awarded a distinction grade.

If you do not achieve a pass grade, you will be referred. This means that you will be able to resit the examination, provided that it is within 12 months of the original examination date. Should you not resit with 12 months or fail your second attempt, you would then be required to complete the whole course again.

Entry Qualifications and Progression
It would be an advantage and we strongly recommend that candidates take the CIEH Intermediate Certificate in Supervising Health and Safety Course , prior to attending this course. Following this course you might wish to consider the CIEH Professional Trainer Certificate .
