Level 6 Diploma
The ProQual Level 6 NVQ Diploma in Occupational Health & Safety Practice is a high-level, competence-based qualification for those who lead, manage, or influence health and safety within their organisation. This diploma is completed through real workplace evidence, allowing you to achieve a recognised qualification without exams.
Ideal for H&S advisors, managers, consultants, and senior professionals, this Level 6 NVQ is a strong alternative to the NEBOSH National Diploma, focusing on practical leadership, risk management, and proactive safety culture.
Learners develop advanced competence in areas such as policy development, strategic risk control, incident investigation, leadership engagement, contractor management, and continual safety improvement, all demonstrated through real job performance.
Through evidence from your day-to-day work: professional discussions, observations, workplace documents and witness statements. No exams.
One assessor supports you one-to-one from induction to certificate, with sessions arranged around your working hours.
Your portfolio is built online in an e-portfolio, with remote or face-to-face support depending on what suits you.
This qualification is awarded by ProQual, a respected UK awarding body specialising in competence-based assessments. ProQual qualifications are recognised by employers, professional bodies, and the wider health & safety industry.
You will complete a series of units that demonstrate your competence across core areas of health & safety. Evidence is gathered through your normal duties and assessed by your dedicated NVQ assessor.
