The NEW NEBOSH National Certificate in Environmental Management is designed to provide a sound foundation in environmental management knowledge and practice.

Introduction

The course is designed for managers, supervisors and employees based in the UK, who have responsibility for managing environment issues as a part of their day-to-day work. The qualification focuses on UK environmental laws and
