Online health and safety courses
An online learning alternative to progress your health and safety career, enabling you to reduce the colossal number of working days lost* worldwide, every year due to work-related injuries and ill health (*33.3 million days lost in Great Britain alone in 2023/24, according to the HSE)
What are online health and safety courses?
With the continual increase in tuition fees, the need to simultaneously study and work, while also living in an increasingly environmentally conscious society, the way we consume information has changed. Being able to learn online at your own convenience has therefore become a more appealing method of education.
This form of education takes place over the internet and is often referred to as “e-learning” among other terms. Undertaking health and safety training online therefore, means you don’t have to attend a classroom as all the learning materials are presented via an interactive online platform.
All you need to complete a health and safety training online course is a computer, tablet or smartphone and an internet connection. At RoSPA we offer a range of flagship qualifications online including NEBOSH and IOSH, so you can find a relevant course to help progress your health and safety career in your own time.
What are the benefits of online health and safety courses?
Health and safety training online is great method of learning for those without the time or availability to attend a traditional classroom taught course. It also offers more opportunities as you can start at any time and study anywhere in the world. It’s also an interesting and enjoyable way to learn as you will gain expert support from CMIOSH qualified trainers throughout, whilst working at your own pace and convenience.
