"I undertook the NEBOSH Fire Certificate to gain a more in depth knowledge of fire safety and changes in fire safety legislation with the introduction of the regulatory reform (fire safety) order 2005. As part of the course issues such as fire prevention, control and minimization strategies were discussed in a friendly and informal environment with knowledgeable & helpful tutors. As a result of my attendance I now feel I have the required skills, knowledge and confidence to undertake in-depth fire risk assessments."
