Courses can be combined

Several of these fit together naturally, such as the five permit modules or the whole investigation set. Tell our counsellors which courses you want and they will confirm the combined fee and arrange the sessions around your shift.

Looking for a full qualification instead? Our NEBOSH, OTHM, MSBTE and BSc programmes run as longer classroom courses at Siwan and Barharia. See the main programmes

FAQ

Common questions

Courses and admission

How do I book, and do I pay online?

Pick a course, choose one of the trainers available for that subject, and leave your name, WhatsApp number and email. No payment is taken on the website. Your booking is confirmed straight away with a five digit student ID and your trainer’s contact details, and we call you to fix the session date and time.

Do I have to be a GIFSE student to join a short course?

No. The short courses are open to everyone, including safety officers already working in industry who want one specific skill, and candidates who have never studied with us before. You can book a single course and nothing else.

What is the difference between a short course and a diploma?

A short course runs for one to three days on a single subject, such as permit to work or root cause analysis, and carries a GIFSE certificate of completion. A diploma or certificate programme runs for months, covers the whole field, and leads to a qualification from an awarding body. Students often do both: the diploma for the qualification, then short courses for the specific skills a job asks for.

Fees and payment

How much does a short course cost?

The fee is set by the length of the course: 499 rupees for a one day course, 999 rupees for two days and 1,299 rupees for three days. That is the amount payable per person, with nothing to add on top. Every fee is printed next to its course above.

Can I book more than one short course together?

Yes. Several of them are designed to sit together, such as the five permit modules or the investigation set. Tell our counsellors which courses you want and they will confirm the combined fee and fit the dates around your work.

Ask for a combined fee

Certificates

What is my student ID for?

It is the five digit number shown when your booking is confirmed. Keep it and quote it whenever you contact GIFSE or your trainer about that course: it is how we find your booking without asking you to repeat everything.

What certificate do I get for a short course?

A GIFSE certificate of completion, issued by us when you finish the course. These short courses are designed and taught by GIFSE, so the certificate is ours rather than an award from an external body. If you need a qualification from an awarding body such as NEBOSH, OTHM or MSBTE, those are our longer programmes.

See the main programmes

Campus and classes

Are the short courses online or in the classroom?

The short courses are delivered live online, so you can attend from wherever you are working. That is the opposite of our longer qualifications, which are classroom programmes at the Siwan and Barharia branches. Your trainer sends you the joining link once your booking is confirmed.

Browse and book

Who teaches the short courses, and can I choose?

Yes, you choose. When you book a course you are shown the trainers who teach that subject, with their qualifications, and you pick who you want to learn from. They are all part of the GIFSE training team and you can read their full backgrounds on our team page.
