Translation Rules
We are obliged under IOSH rules to remind anyone who translates the course that they MUST NOT help delegates with working out any of the answers in the final 2 tests.
It is allowed to have a translator, but when this happens, IOSH requires us to get written confirmation from the translator that they have not helped provide answers to the final exam questions — that they have only translated the words.
As H&S specialists, we care deeply about the knowledge as well as the certification. We all need to consider the safety of the delegates going onto sites — 35% of all workplace fatalities in the UK are from accidents on construction sites and it is crucial that anyone who sits the final tests passes under their own knowledge.
By accepting these terms and conditions you are confirming that the coursework and final exams are your own work.
