@boyo4ilfe thankx 4 your feedback. Well, I attended a course at Nigerian Institute of Safety Professionals (NISP) recently. I am actually a new entrant to the field. I just thought if there are other HSE people on nairaland, we could 'network' to increase our 'networth' (u know what I mean  ) |

Hi fellas,
i've been a practicing HSE professional for abt 5yrs in an oil company, and it's been worth the experience. while NISP is a good way to start, u can upgrade to a better recognised certification NEBOSH, they have a center that offer their certification in nigeria and it's expensive 350k. they do it twice a yr in march and sept. so u may have to wait till next yr

@diehard! BIGUP Man & thankx 4ur helpful contribution, I feel like taking out my notes for lessons from a Senior in the field (You) But really how has it been 4u on the field practically speaking, am also in d O & G sector presently. And d NEBOSH stuff, is it a one-off payment (I mean d 350k)? @stankion if u're refering to the NISP course, there are presently 3 Levels i.e Levels 1, 2 & 3 and each level costs btw 10 to 12k presently (most graduates i.e, 1st degree holders start from level 2). |

@Olateej NISP has a head office situated in Lagos and according to their website ( www.nispnigeria.com) can also be reached through its branch offices within Nigeria. Head Office MAN Centre, 5 Eleruwa Street, Off Ajao Road, By Adeniyi Jones Avenue, P.O. Box 12963, Ikeja, Lagos. Tel: 0-8910154, 08023131376, 08036685285 E-mail: info@nispnigeria.com Delta Branch 16 Okumagba Avenue, Warri, Delta State.

E-mail: akwa_ibom@nispnigeria.com The courses range from 1 to 5 days in duration. As to your question of a Botany graduate working in an Oil company, I say yes, it is possible but d dept to work in may depend on whether the person concerned has additional skills, certifications or professional qualifications. As u know may people re-design / re-invent their career paths after their 1st or even 2nd degrees. |

NEBOSH relates mostly to occupational safety - you guys need to look at more areas such as environmental management systems (EMS) and other forms of training.
Are there firms offering EMS/ISO 14001 training in Nigeria?
HSE is a really broad area, but occupational safety is just one of them. More contributions would be welcome.

Despite doing all d trainings and being a member of d body, getting a job in this field has not been easy for fresh people without industry practical experience. It's always 3-5yrs experience when u see openings. God dey.

@olovezej
Aquiring academic qualifications or professional certifications is sometimes a way of preparing for opportunities. Often in life, opportunities come from where you least expect it and at other times even from sources you least expect but it is always a good idea to be be ready when such opportunity shows up.
Oprah Winfrey once defined LUCK as PREPARATION + OPPORTUNITY. You may not be able to determine when the opportunity would come, but you can determine how prepared you will be when it does come.
So, don't be discouraged because as you commented, GOD DEY!

@tamai
I think a starting point you might consider in getting acquainted with HSE may be through the NISP route as earlier mentioned in the threads before now. Its also perhaps, one of the least expensive and relatively credible routes I know of at the moment.
I have come across a number of erstwhile 'chemists' who evolved into HSE practitioners. Furthermore, the NISP course is something you can pursue alongside other endeavours like your PGD in chemistry or other work. Cheers!

Well, you can start the process by sourcing information relating to CASHES/HSE/'safety ofiicer' openings from coys in relevant industries like Energy (Oil & Gas), Construction and manufacturing. If you have no prior hands-on experience in the field, it may be more realistic for you to focus on entry level positions (though age could be a factor in some instances). The minimum pay of course would vary from one organisation to the other even within the same industry (sector). But generally speaking, in the energy sector, sometimes an entry level pay may be comparable to what obtains in the banking sctor. |
