Edd Scott of Nexus, with Dr Mike Deary of Northumbria UniversityOct 22, 2018 11:47 BSTTop of the class for health and safetyFor the third time in four years, a Northumbria University, Newcastle studenthas been named one of the best in the UK for studies relating to occupationalhealth and safety.Northumbria University has offered NEBOSH courses for more than 20 years.NEBOSH is the National Examination Board for Occupational Safety andHealth and its courses provide a wide range of professionally-recognisedqualifications for those working in the health and safety, environmentalawareness and management sectors, as part of their continuing professionaldevelopment.

During the 2017/18 academic year, student Edd Scott, was the UK’s topperformer in Unit D of the National Diploma in Occupational Health andSafety.Edd was a Health, Safety, Quality and Environment Advisor at Tyne and Wearpublic transport operator, Nexus. His place on the part-time course wasfunded by his employer, and thanks to his successful completion, he has sincebeen promoted to a Senior Advisor position.He said: “I knew I had scored well in my assessment but had no idea howwell. It wasn’t until graduation day that it sank in how big an achievement itwas to have the top score nationally and internationally for this module. Itprobably helped that I really enjoyed writing the assignment, which was anaccumulation of all the knowledge learned from the first three exams.He was presented with the Best Candidate Award by NEBOSH for hisachievement by Martin Temple CBE, Chair of the Health and Safety Executive.Edd enjoyed his studies and believes they contributed to his recentpromotion to a more senior role.“I enjoyed studying at the University. The course material was excellent andthe online portal for sharing information and course content was very helpful.I would – and have – highly recommend anyone to study for the NEBOSHDiploma with Northumbria.He added: “I was recently promoted to the role of senior HSQE advisor. I seethe NEBOSH Diploma as the stepping stone I have needed to further progressmy career and hope one day to be able to study at Northumbria for a healthand safety PhD.”Managing Director of Nexus, Tobyn Hughes, said: “Edd Scott is a Nexussuccess story and this is a great achievement for him. It underlines ourongoing commitment to health and safety excellence in everything that wedo.“Many of the services that Nexus provides will involve staff working day andnight in safety critical roles. We must keep up the highest standards ofoccupational health and safety. Training and development is one of the key

ways of ensuring that we get it right.”Dr Mike Deary, Associate Professor in Northumbria University’s Department ofGeography and Environmental Sciences, said: “NEBOSH courses are aimed atstudents across every sector and workplace. There is no typical student, and Ithink this is what often makes the courses so enjoyable as our students havesuch a diverse range of backgrounds and experiences. Some are just startingout on their journey in this profession, whereas others have been involved fora long time, but want to gain formal recognition and qualifications.“Edd was a keen and active member of the class – always contributing andhelping the whole group with their learning. He achieved such a high markbecause of his attention to detail, combined with some thorough research.“We are clearly offering a high quality learning experience on our courses, asexemplified by Northumbria students achieving best candidate awards threetimes in the last four years, including the best overall NEBOSH Diplomacandidate award.“I believe the reason for this is the passion and experience of the tutor teamwho come from a range of practitioner backgrounds, including the Health andSafety Executive and the public and private sectors. This experience allowsthem to really bring the subject to life.”View embedded content hereNorthumbria CPD student working for Nexus wins national health and safety
