IOSH Managing Safely in Exhibitions & Events

The IOSH Managing Safely in the Exhibition and Event Industry training course is designed to reflect the requirements set for managers and supervisors upon whom the responsibilities fall for operational safety. This course also acts as a wonderful foundation from which to progress to the National Examination Board in Occupational Safety & Health (NEBOSH) National General Certificate. The course is ideal for floor managers, duty managers, organisers and others with operational responsibility, or safety input for exhibitions / events / shows. Part-time health and safety staff, safety representatives and graduates have also found it to be invaluable in providing essential skills for putting health and safety theory into practice.
