NEBOSH’s multiple choice assessments will move online, enabling learners in any country of the world to engage in learning and achieve the NEBOSH qualifications assessed in this way.

This affects the following qualifications/units:

• NEBOSH HSE Certificate in Process Safety Management, Unit PSM1
• NEBOSH Environmental Awareness at Work Qualification , Unit EAW1

The multiple choice assessment must be accessed and completed via NEBOSH’s Online Assessment Platform and completed within a 24-hour assessment window. Learners can begin their assessment at any time within the 24-hour window but, once they have started the assessment, they must complete it within the designated time frame for the unit (30 minutes for EAW1 and 90 minutes for PSM1). These assessments will also be remotely proctored to ensure their integrity. Detailed information about accessing the assessment and the proctoring process is detailed in the Resources section below.

Please make sure you read and understand the Malpractice Policy before completing your NEBOSH assessment – this contains extensive information about the conduct we expect from our learners and Learning Partners and the disciplinary sanctions for failing to adhere to them.
