Certification
Students should be mindful that this is a Degree level qualification and as such this classifies the NEBOSH Environmental Diploma as a demanding qualification. Therefore you may find it very difficult to gain a pass mark if you do not already have crucial background knowledge as a health & safety practitioner or the ability to study at this level.
The qualification is divided into two units, each of which is assessed separately:
Managing environmental aspects: Unit ED1 is assessed by a three-hour written examination. Students choose to answer 5 out of 8 questions.
- Unit ED1: Controlling environmental aspects
- Unit IDEM2: Environmental Regulation
Environmental regulation: Unit IDEM2 is assessed by a written assignment of approximately 8000 words, designed to test knowledge across the syllabus.
Students must successfully complete both parts of the assessment (assignment and examination) within five years of the result declaration for the first unit successfully completed in order to achieve the qualification.
