I recently completed a NEBOSH National Diploma in Occupational Health and Safety with Capital People, and I couldn’t be more impressed.
The tutors were knowledgeable and engaging, the materials were comprehensive and well organised, and the overall learning experience was excellent.
I particularly appreciated how accessible tutors were to answer questions in and out of training days.
I would like to thank Mark in particular for providing the support I needed to achieve this qualification.
