Have you prepared for your CLOSING INTERVIEW?

Here are the guidelines that NEBOSH have given in preparation for your closing interview.

• The closing interview can be done via video link and will be conducted by an interviewer nominated by your Learning Partner.

• You need to bring any of these documents for identification purposes:Passport, Driving License, or National Identity card.

• You will be notified by your Learning Partner for the date and time for your closing interview. This can be accessed through smart phone, tablet or desktop.

• Interviews must be done alone in a private room, unless subject for some reasonable adjustments (such us caring children or vulnerable person). Reasonable adjustments need to be approved by NEBOSH.

Things to expect during the interview:

• You will be asked to show your identification to the interviewer and this will be cross-checked with the registration details.

• You will also be asked to show your room, to make sure that there is no available notes or electronic devices that you can access during the interview.

• The interviewer will ask you questions based on your open book examination. This is to satisfy that the output submitted was your own work and did not ask for any assistance in completing the assessment.

If the interviewer is convinced that the output is your own , your mark will be declared in line with published NEBOSH timeframes.  If unsatisfactory, the learning partner will notify NEBOSH and you will be contacted for the next step of possible next interview.

You have nothing to worry upon attending the Closing Interview as this will only to assess that your output is your personal work and this will not affect your exam marking.

Best of luck!

Importance of Health & Safety Culture

When completing the practical assessment follow the plan below:

1. First, carefully read the example supplied as this gives you an idea of the amount of detail that is required

2. Print out and use the hazard category list

3. Don’t be tempted to give too many details (look at the example for guidance) however ensure you check your work in line with the details above – you could actually use the above as a ‘checklist’ when you are checking your work. Do make sure you check your work thoroughly before submission

4. Don’t be tempted to ‘use bits’ from the example. All examiners use the example when marking and so it is obvious and this would be considered malpractice by NEBOSH

5. Maintain a rigorous approach, it pays dividends

6. Make sure you strictly follow the guidelines sent to you by RRC regarding the submission dates

7. Good luck
