Student Testimonials

What our Students Say About Us.

Being a girl, it was a challenging decision which I took, to pursue my career through NEBOSH.
Ensign welcomed me wholeheartedly and provided me the best coaching.
Today, looking back, I can say that, that decision of mine, to travel through the less chosen path made me different from others and have flying colors in my career.
Nothing would have been possible, if I had not went to Ensign and if I had not taken the course.
I really appreciate the tutors and the institute for giving such care and guidance for the students to achieve the goal.
Much love towards Ensign and my teachers.

My NEBOSH International Diploma course in Ensign Safety Institute Cochin was excellent. I have spent 30 continuous days in this institute for learning Unit A, B & C. The ambiance during my classes was really worth and memorable. The tutor was outstanding in coaching and mentoring. The study materials and coaching methodology offered has made me success to become a Diploma holder.
Adding to this, I would also like to say that Ensign’s management and admin staff were very effective in organizing things around. The institute offered me an affordable fees structure. Besides other course mates were well disciplined and cooperative. Overall the arrangements were up to my expectations and suiting to a good academic ambiance. I wish to give an excellent rating to this institute.

HSE Manager, Alturky, Oman

Without doubt, having completed the Lead Auditor course in ISO 45001 at Ensign has undeniably helped me to lead my organisation to higher level of certification. Having an internationally recognized certification as part of my portfolio, gave me the confidence and opportunity to oversee all the safety requirements for an arduous expedition to gain the ISO certification for my organisation. It also enhanced my skill to guide and lead free consultations to the needy professionals
I fully recommend not only to do a course with Ensign Safety Academy, but grabbing any opportunity that comes your way to widen your horizons. Best regards.
