Annual 3'rd Party Audit against OSHAD SF V 3.1
IDSE diploma was a great experience to my career. At first when I was introduced to the course, I felt it wasn’t worth it until I started to show more interest with the help of the institute. All the process went smoothly from enrolment until the exam date. The course content is very good and I advised those of you who want to have a level 6 diploma to give it a try. I started the process by January this year and my first exam was February which I wrote and passed at the first attempt, the second exam was in April which I also passed. ‘Business Excellence’ institutes have qualified tutors who can guide you all through the process and encourage you to study. I advise anyone who wants to enroll in IDSE to go with this institute.

Instrumentation EngineerWe recently had a contract with BEC to cope up with the requirements of ISO certification, OSHAD and EAD; and it was quite a good experience as we complied in a limited time frame. The facilitator Mr. Waqar found to be responsive and had in-depth knowledge of the UAE’s OS&H-related regulations.
