The qualification

Find the real cause, not just the person.

When something goes wrong, a good investigation finds out why and makes sure it does not happen again. A poor one blames an individual and moves on. The NEBOSH HSE Introduction to Incident Investigation, developed with the Health and Safety Executive, teaches the difference.

In one day you learn a structured approach to investigating incidents, from gathering evidence and interviewing witnesses to producing an action plan that prevents a repeat.

Request course information

Every incident and near miss is a chance to learn. Investigated well, it reveals weaknesses in equipment, procedures, supervision or culture before they cause serious harm.

The course covers the techniques and processes of investigation, how to gather and preserve evidence, how to interview witnesses using a structured model, and how to turn findings into a practical action plan. It also explores how investigations can strengthen safety culture rather than damage trust.

The assessment is practical: you apply the interview technique to witness accounts and draw conclusions in an action plan.
