Assessment  process:

Open book examinations enable you to sit your NEBOSH assessment on your own, usually in your own home or another safe and suitable location where you can concentrate. In a NEBOSH open book examination you will have up to 24 hours to complete your paper – though you should be able to complete the examination in 4-5 hours.

To help you during the digital assessments you can use resources such as notes, textbooks, learning materials and online resources. It’s important to remember that cutting and pasting from a textbook or online resource will not provide you with a good answer – you will need to really understand the topic and apply your understanding to the scenario given in the question paper. Any materials used should also be correctly referenced.

Learners wishing to sit this examination must register via their Learning Partner.

Results will be issued 50 working days from the examination date and sent to the email address registered to your learner record
