I am actually planning to hire people with good health and safety background, and then sponsor them in NEBOSH general certificate to outsource some of my works in Nigeria. I own a health and safety consultancy in the UK and the work load is getting too much as my client base is growing monthly. I am still exploring the workability of the idea given the near non-existent of electricity in Nigeria.

I have three persons already working on pro rata basis for me in Kenya, and it pains me I can not do that in Nigeria because of electricity.

You're Correct, I did my ISPON last year @ about #60,000.

quote]I'm an HSE officer. HSE certifications are very lucrative but you said you want to do HSE level 1-3 which is the basics for beginners. How come it's up to that amount? 400k. Cos Ispon is about 70k for HSE 1-3 or did you add up with Nebosh or Osha certifications as well to come up to that amount? [/quote]

I'm an HSE supervisor, level 1-3 won't cost you more than 80k, make sure you do it with ISPON, other certifying bodies are fake and not accepted by most companies like SHELL, agip etc..
Then you will need someone in the field that will teach you so that you will have practical field experience.

How about the one being organized by onshore and offshore safety institute

If you're rich enough to spend N400k on an HSE certificate, then you're rich enough to create jobs, employ your fellow youths, and take them out of the labor market sad

Hello Naira landers,

I looked up the cost of enrollment for HSE 1-3. It's almost around 400K. Considering the economy, is it wise to spend that kind of money on training?

How lucrative is having a HSE certificate in the job market?

Which jobs are readily available for HSE holders?

As a thoroughbred Nigerian, I will start by answering your simple question with plenty questions. Why do you need the HSE certificate? What is the end game? What is your background? Do you have a current offer or do you have anyone showing you the way? Which country or part of the world are you going?

Now back to your questions:
simonsays:

is it wise to spend that kind of money on training?
It is a risk. In my opinion, If you can afford it and you have other skills, it may not be a bad idea. If you struggle to put the money together and you're planning to travel out, it may be worth it. If you can't afford it and you know nothing about the field apart from the name, the risk gets even bigger. Unless if you have other plans sha.

Make I talk true, I'm totally clueless about this part. Job postings that I have seen for HSE positions require more than 2 or 3 weeks of HSE training.

simonsays:

There are HSE Professionals and there are folks (especially engineers) that take such courses as an add-on to the feathers in their cap as they practice their profession or to increase their scope of influence within their organization.

In my opinion, HSE certificate alone can not help you if you do not have other skills to build on. This includes some education (I'm not just talking about degree here) and lots of soft skills, especially people management (I do not mean management skills o, but the art of dealing with all kinds of people - especially people that do not want to comply with what you have been told to enforce).

In some basic HSE roles, you get trained (on top of your certificate) and you only need to do what you're told - fire watch, safety watch, confined space watch, etc. In some other roles, you need to be very familiar with regulations, policies or even the trade you are working with. Of course, the path to get to these roles will be significantly different.

Re: Is There Any Advantage Of Having A HSE Certificate? by Swallowurspit(m): 9:10pm On Jul 28, 2021
Health, Safety and Environment is quite broad and you have to focus on the aspect you want after acquiring the foundation Level 1-3. NEBOSH IGC/Diploma is recognised internationally.
There are roles like HSE, Safety Officer, HSSE, Food safety officer, Safety Auditor, Environmental officer and many more.
You can work in construction, catering, facility management, oil and gas, security, airport/seaport, manufacturing companies and any other industry. HSE is required in all industries but Naija has a poor safety culture. That’s why you see truck accidents and building collapse every time.

Come to Qatar, there are plenty of opportunities.... With HSE certificate, or even IOSH cert. . But naija is a dead country, I doubt if you can get a good job with that cert while still there. Good luck anyways.

HSE awareness is becoming increasingly relevant in most industries, so its definitely worth upskilling anyway you can.

I started by doing HSE 1-3 as well, although I was sponsored by my previous firm at the time in 2019, so I'm surprised its at that cost now.

If you are considering practising HSE abroad though, I would consider doing the IOSH Managing Safely Course and/or NEBOSH courses.

These ones are more respected internationally, currently doing the NEBOSH Construction Certification as construction is my industry and is even more specialised with great prospects once you've finished.

All the best on your learning journey!
What's the cost of NEBOSH Construction Safety?
I've done NEBOSH IGC. I'm looking for a fairly grounded safety course I can do for construction as I am looking at going back to construction. I currently work with NBC which is more geared towards process safety.
I want to beef up my knowledge of construction safety.
I also heard IOSH has something related to that.

Unless you are already employed, there is very little case for spending that money on HSE certification, worse still if it's not like NEBOSH IGC for example, then it's a local scam.

You just think what exactly you are going to do with that certification, if there's no definite end goal in sight, don't waste the money.

Modified:
I did not even see the HSE 1-3 before now, please don't do it...don't waste your money, it's scam, if a company hires you, it takes only weeks to bring you up to speed on HSE.
