Certificates & certification

Recognised certificates, in black and white

Every course can be completed with a choice of certificates. Below you can read what each certificate covers and who it is intended for.

Our range

Which certificate do I need?

At Group-f Academy, a course can lead to several types of certificate. Which one applies depends on the course, the participant's goal and any requirements set by the employer, client or site.

Some courses conclude with a BeSaCC certificate. This certificate is tied to a recognised framework for safety training and is often requested for roles or tasks where demonstrable safety knowledge or professional competence matters.

Group-f Academy also issues its own training certificates. A Group-f certificate confirms that the participant followed the course and/or successfully completed it in line with Group-f Academy's conditions. This certificate is suitable where a formal BeSaCC certificate is not required, but the employer does want to keep a record of training or attendance.

Not sure which certificate you need? We are happy to look together at which course and which certificate best match the role, the working environment and the client's expectations.

BeSaCC certificate

A BeSaCC certificate is intended for courses to which a recognised safety framework applies. It shows that the participant completed the course and/or assessment in line with the applicable conditions.

A BeSaCC certificate may be required when an employer, client, site or contractor asks for a formally recognised certificate for certain safety-critical tasks.

Group-f certificate

A Group-f certificate is a training certificate issued by Group-f Academy. With it we confirm that the participant followed a course and/or completed an internal assessment in line with our training conditions.

This certificate is particularly suitable where no formal BeSaCC certificate is required, but the employer does want to show that the employee has been trained on a particular topic, task or risk.
