Leeds City College Achieves NEBOSH Sliver Learning Partner Status

Leeds City College is proud to announce its recent accreditation as a Silver Learning Partner by the National Examination Board in Occupational Safety and Health (NEBOSH). Following a rigorous inspection audit in November, this prestigious upgrade from Bronze status highlights the college’s dedication to exceeding NEBOSH’s principles of learning excellence.
Why NEBOSH?
NEBOSH, a globally recognised accreditation body for health, safety, and environmental qualifications, developed the Learning Partner Programme to help learners find the right training provider. Silver status is awarded to providers who consistently go above and beyond to deliver best practices in education, ensuring exceptional learner experiences.
At Leeds City College, NEBOSH courses are delivered by experienced tutors and cover key areas such as the legal requirements for health and safety, identifying and managing workplace hazards, and applying this knowledge practically. The courses are designed to equip students with a thorough understanding of workplace safety, preparing them to become effective health and safety professionals in various industries.
In the most recent NEBOSH examinations, held in October 2024, 100% of the college’s learners successfully passed—a testament to the high quality of training provided. This impressive achievement not only showcases the expertise of the college’s tutors but also reflects the commitment of its students to mastering essential safety principles.
