You’ll get instant results feedback, and will have two attempts at the questions on your assessment day. Under IOSH rules, if you don’t pass you’ll need to resit the assessment at a different time.

Like our EVC Training, your IOSH certificate is valid for three years. You’ll receive a reminder to arrange your training before it expires.
When revalidating, you’ll need to take the full 6 hour EVC Training Course as this is part of our IOSH approved pathway.
