What NEBOSH Verified Means - And Why It Matters for AI in Occupational Safety

12th January 2026

NEBOSH’s recent launch of NEBOSH Verified marks an important development in professional health and safety training. 

For the first time, NEBOSH is offering a dedicated verification service that recognises high-quality, non-qualification programmes that meet its rigorous standards for governance, credibility and impact. Importantly, only a limited number of courses will be verified at any one time - reinforcing the exclusivity and integrity of the recognition. 

Phoenix Health & Safety is proud to be the first UK organisation to have a course verified under this new service. 

Why Verification Matters in Emerging Areas Like AI 

Artificial intelligence is rapidly becoming part of modern safety management - from predictive analytics and real-time monitoring to automated compliance and smarter reporting. But AI is also complex, fast-moving and often misunderstood. 

For safety professionals, this raises important questions: 

  • Which AI tools are credible and appropriate for safety use? 
     

  • How do you implement AI responsibly and ethically? 
     

  • How do you ensure data quality, governance and compliance? 
     

NEBOSH Verified provides reassurance that a course addressing these topics has been independently reviewed by experts and meets internationally respected standards.
