Diploma supports pipeline of new health and safety professionals

One way it is doing this is through IOSH Academy, which has recently been launched as a recognised study centre for the IOSH Level 6 Diploma in Occupational Safety and Health Leadership and Management.

This qualification is mapped against IOSH’s competency framework and certificated and awarded by IOSH as the awarding body. Successful candidates meet the academic requirements for two levels of IOSH membership – certified and technical – thereby helping them progress in their careers towards becoming the health and safety leaders of the future.

Excited

Ruth Lake, our Director of Strategic and Commercial Development, said: “We’re really excited that the IOSH Academy is a recognised study centre for the Level 6 diploma.

“We recognise we live in a volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous time and the world of work is changing rapidly before our eyes. We’re incredibly passionate about ensuring there is a pipeline of new professionals who are able to ensure that the safety and health of working people is prioritised.

“As the diploma is so closely mapped to our competency framework and will be delivered by highly-experienced tutors, students who successfully complete it will be well set up for their career and be able to continue to develop and support businesses moving forward.”

The IOSH course is studied through a combination of e-learning, workshops and tutorial sessions – with online learning meaning students can access it from anywhere in the world.
