The Management of Environmental Risks in the Workplace Reviews
General Study Book Reviews Customer Review of the International General Certificate Study Book (Via Amazon.co.uk) "This book really helped me with my studies. It simplified what is to be very long and complex context of the course. I have strongly suggested to my colleagues to purchase this book. First book, NEBOSH IGC - next stop is NEBOSH Diploma books". Customer Review of the Construction Certificate Study Book (Via Amazon.co.uk) "My dad is starting the NEBOSH course; he has found this book very useful and easily explained. He is not familiar with exams or reading as he is a builder by trade, however, he said that this book has everything in it and is easy to follow". Customer Review of the Fire Certificate Study Book (Via Amazon.co.uk) "As a study guide this is an excellent addition to the learning tools that already exist. It is comprehensive and contains lots of information relevant to both the course content and the examination. It provides very good information well above the current level of NVQ Level 3. It should not be used to replace any current course information but be used in addition to the course information and in this way will provide a very good grounding in health and safety fire certificate knowledge and understanding. It provides assessments at the back of the book and samples questions and answers. In all, an excellent book for use as a study guide". Customer Review of the National General Certificate Study Book (Via Amazon.co.uk) "This book arrived very swiftly and has greatly helped my husband with his course - just waiting for the exam results". Customer Review (Via ACT Website) "We have been placing orders with ACT for a number of years. The service has been exceptional and the staff are very helpful. I often delay our order until the last minute and they always react. We have confidence in ACT to provide the latest material at a competitive price and we really appreciate everything they do". Customer Review (Via ACT Website) "Completed and passed the course with the help of your study books. Without your study book I would not have passed".
