Please see below instructions on how to Verify a learners NEBOSH Certificate Using the QR Code:

1. Locate and Scan the QR Code

All certificates issued from October 2019 onwards have a QR code in the bottom-right corner.
Use a smart device (phone or tablet) to scan the QR code.
Important Information: Scanning the QR code on a genuine NEBOSH certificate will take you to: https://nebosh-validation.verisecure.org

2. Enter Your Details

You will be asked to provide your personal information: Name, Organisation and Email address.
The verification request cannot proceed without this.

3. Certificate Holder Approval

An email is sent to the certificate owner asking them to confirm the request.
They can either Approve or Deny the request.

4. Receive Verification Result

If the holder Approves, you will receive an email confirming if the certificate is genuine. Emails will only be sent from: Veri-Secure, noreply@nebosh.org.uk.
If the holder Denies, the verification will be rejected.
If no response by the owner is given within 2 days, the request expires. Please submit the request again and contact the learner to check their emails to approve the request.

If you are facing issues scanning the QR Code, please proceed by using the Online Verification Service. Details for this can be found on our NEBOSH Online Verification Page.

If you are still facing issues or the certificate was issued before February 2007, you will need to submit the Manual Verification Request Form for NEBOSH to verify your Certificate.
