While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

Macy is brilliant and very patient. I did not want to do the NEBOSH general certificate but with her support I have decided to try again. The booking process was really easy

IOSH Managing Safely

BSC were very professional and efficient in organising the in person IOSH Managing Safely course. The trainer, Gavin Taylor was extremely knowledgeable and delivered the course clearly with the opportunity to discuss topics of particular interest in more detail.

Fantastic Tutors and Support

I am currently undertaking my NEBOSH Diploma with British Safety Council, having already successfully completed my NEBOSH General cert with them last year.
A review doesn't do justice to how amazing David B is as a tutor!! He honestly makes the course so enjoyable and rewarding.
Not only he is super knowledgeable but he is a tremendous mentor.

Thanks to the way he teaches, I earned a credit in my ND1 (first module of the diploma) and will be incorporating the skills I am gaining into my employment as a H&S practitioner.

Both him and Matthew P are extremely empathetic (considering I get nervous regarding exam pressure) encouraging and very supportive!
This is my second review regarding Matt's support as it doesn't go un appreciated :)

Overall the Brit safe team (Akhil, Jurgita and Jagruti) are very helpful and responsive in assisting with queries regarding my studies, and booking in courses for other colleagues in my company.

Overall British Safety Council are a top training provider in my eyes. Thank you all !

IOSH Management Safety course - Jeremy Mitchell (Instructor)

I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to have taken the IOSH Management Safety course with Jeremy Mitchell as my instructor. His expertise and passion for the subject matter were truly inspiring, and I found myself fully engaged in the learning experience. Thanks to the course's well-structured material, I was able to gain invaluable insights that have helped me both personally and professionally. The online exams were a breeze, and I experienced no technical hiccups. This experience has inspired me to continue learning and growing as a safety professional, and I cannot wait to apply my newfound knowledge to make a difference.

Level 3 NVQ Certificate in Occupational Health and Safety

I have completed the Level 3 NVQ Certificate in Occupational Health and Safety recently. I was happy with the service provided, the support I had from Mark and how promptly he replied to my messages or marked my work.
I have undertaken previous courses with the British Safety Council, I would recommend this provider.
