IIRSM Course Approval for Manchester Metropolitan University

We are delighted that Manchester Metropolitan University has become a Course Approval client. Situated in the heart of Manchester, the university has been driving progress through education and research for more than 200 years.

The university sought IIRSM approval for its MSc Occupational Safety, Health and Environment (OSHE) programme to show learners and employers that its high-quality course content meets industry standards. 

Dr Ernest Nnadi, Programme Lead, MSc OSHE at Manchester Metropolitan University, said: “IIRSM approval demonstrates the quality and rigour of our MSc Occupational Safety, Health and Environment programme, aligning with industry requirements in the area of risk and safety management. 

“The IIRSM approval provides industry assurance on the credibility of the MSc OSHE programme, and confirmation that the programme enhances professional development and meets competency requirements in risk and safety management.”

Sue Bull, IIRSM Professional Development Specialist, said: “IIRSM is thrilled to embark on a new working relationship with Manchester Metropolitan University through the IIRSM Course Approval scheme. This will enable students to begin their membership journey with IIRSM as well as being able to access a range of additional support to enhance their learning.”

IIRSM Course Approval brings the value of IIRSM’s brand and standards together with an organisation’s expertise to form a partnership for the delivery of training. There are many benefits to having your course IIRSM-approved, including independent recognition to instil trust and credibility and aligning the course with an internationally recognised brand and competency framework.

On the course approval process, Dr Nnadi added: “The approval process was thorough and straightforward with sufficient support provided.”
