Health and Safety Basics and Essentials Certificate

Health and Safety Basics and Essentials Course

This course covers simple everyday aspects that should be practised daily. It is vital that everyone practises excellent personal hygiene, environmental cleanliness, and is aware of safety and emergency procedures. These practices are vital to your personal image, and the health and safety of the various members of a household. Many individuals find this course helps to prepare them for the workforce. Each practice can help shape a person into a responsible and trustworthy one where health, hygiene and safety are concerned.

Health and safety skills are essential to maintain a healthy, clean and safe body and environment. Accountability is the most important characteristic one must possess to be successful in succeeding and practising these skills. Each rule and skill are set towards the desired goal. Health and safety skills are essential in incidents, such as preventing injuries, reducing chances of exploitation, individual empowerment, and they create an efficient environment for everyone involved. Even if your home doubles as a workplace and your risk for hazard exposure is low, it is still vital to ensure you are living in a clean environment.

Anyone who has an interest in learning more about this subject matter is encouraged to take the course. There are no entry requirements to take the course.

The course is broken down into 3 individual modules. Each module takes between 20 and 90 minutes on average to study. Although you are free to spend as much or as little time as you feel necessary on each module, simply log in and out of the course at your convenience.

Very well organised via Modules. It was extremely helpful. I learned a lot of new and interesting things.
I especially liked those modules with 'homework' at the end. It might be better if every module has some extra tasks for practice.

I found the course relevant, clear, concise and a good basis for a change of career to HR. I thought it was good value for money, the balance of information, the exercises were good and liked the fact that I can access from wherever and study at my own pace.

I found the website easy to navigate and liked the fact it remembered where I was up to. When I asked a question of support, I got a fast response that solved my question. I would do courses with New Skills Academy in the future.

Thank you very much!

I am a hands-on learner, nothing goes in when I am bored blasted. This course was fantastic, the material for each module is provided in writing, which can be printed and read wherever you are in in your own time, all devices compatible and a short video showing how to do it using Excel.

You can re-visit each module however many times you want, even after completing the exam. The exam is totally content driven (what they teach is what they ask).
This is a great site to learn and I will be recommending it to everyone, Do a course…

This short course about dyslexia is well worth the money. I am a fully qualified dyslexia specialist who teaches full time. I saw this course and thought it would be a good idea to ensure my knowledge and strategies were current. This course is thorough, packed with facts and useful interventions and is easily manageable. It fulfils its brief and would be extremely useful to teachers and TAs working in school who wish to increase their knowledge of SpLD and how to support children effectively. The course reinforces prior knowledge and gives food for thought and discussion. The time indicators for each session are reasonably accurate and allow you to plan your studying and feel that the course is manageable around other commitments. There are some points which feel incomplete or slightly simplified but one can always find further literature and articles to extend one's understanding. I recommend this course.
