NEBOSH Awards and Certificates
Upon completion of your NEBOSH Award or Certificate course, you will be issued one physical certificate once all units have been completed. These are issued from NEBOSH to RRC within 20 working days of the official results date. They are then processed by RRC, who will contact you directly to arrange dispatch.
NEBOSH Diploma
For NEBOSH Diploma level qualifications you will receive 1 physical certificate for each unit, plus a final parchment once the entire course is completed. For each unit passed, we will contact you to confirm if you would like to receive your certificate for that unit, or for us to hold it and send it once all units have been completed. For Diploma students based in the UK, you will receive your certificates and final parchments directly from NEBOSH. As such, it is important that you ensure your postal address is up-to-date. You can update your address either by contacting RRC, or NEBOSH directly.
