FAQS

CANCELLATION/REFUNDS

You may exchange any distance learning certification for another topic, prior to downloading or accessing course material. We will simply apply your payment towards the new topic. However, if course material has been accessed, then it cannot be exchanged. Under no circumstances will BUEA refund a student’s money AFTER seven (7) days of initial purchase for any reason. If it is seven days or less, student will be entitled to refund if he/she has NOT downloaded material minus a 20% processing fee.

TAKING MY COURSE

No. For each question, you must click the “Submit” button to finalize your answer. Be certain that you have selected the answer that you want before you click submit. Once you submit your answer, it cannot be changed. As soon as you submit your answer, you will be informed if you are correct or incorrect. If your answer is incorrect, make a note of the question content so that you know which section of the course to review.

BUEA exams allow two (2) attempts to make a passing score of 80%. After two attempts, the exam is no longer accessible. Additional exam attempts may be purchased for a small administrative fee. To purchase additional exam attempts, please contact info@buea.uk

Tests are open book. You can utilize your course materials during exams.

No. BUEA courses are designed as stand-alone courses and must be completed in full for students to receive certifications. However, students may find that knowledge from completed outside coursework assists them in completing BUEA courses. Please note that the Licensed Safety Professional and Certified Safety Director certifications require prerequisites of which one option is completed degrees.

BUEA AS A CERTIFYING BODY

Yes. All of our courses exceed OSHA requirements. OSHA is considered the ‘bare minimum’ for compliance and therefore Buea considers this only one element of an effective safety training program. All of our courses, both instructor led and online, have been designed to meet or exceed ANSI/ASSP Z490.1-2016 requirements for Safety, Health, and Environmental Training.

This question is asked frequently from people who are trying to differentiate between the two certifications. The CSP designation is certainly a legitimate credential; however, BUEA simply does not see the Board of Certified Safety Professionals (BCSP) as a competitor. If one has an engineering education and desires an engineering emphasis in a workplace safety career, then the CSP certification may be an option. It must be noted, that the CSP is the passing of a single exam. There is no class or course material. BCSP does not offer training; they offer you the opportunity to verify training obtained elsewhere. The LSP is certification of a high level of knowledge, skills, and abilities with the successful completion of a specific curriculum. In addition, the LSP topics range far beyond the CSP credential, including review of pertinent DOT and EPA regulations. It is more comprehensive in scope, representing a very broad scope of knowledge, skills, and abilities.

If you qualify for the CSP (which requires a four year degree and five years of experience in the safety field), but are debating between the CSP and the LSP, then perhaps you may choose both and have the ultimate proof to any employer of advanced expertise in the safety field. There are many professionals who have obtained both certifications. The LSP was originally developed for those who may not have the math/engineering skills to pass the CSP exam. Many were those who did not begin their careers as safety professionals but ultimately found themselves with workplace safety responsibilities. Today, many engineers and holders of safety related college degrees also seek BUEA certifications.

TECHNICAL SUPPORT

Make sure you have read the question and required materials and understand the material you read. Most courses are open-book tests to assist students in self-discovery. If you went through a 40 hour course with others doing the same course, you may like to e-mail other students and utilize group training methodology. BUEA is happy to assist students with genuine difficulties that have made every effort to accomplish the required work. BUEA will not give out answers to exam questions.

For our international students, registering for classroom courses is simple. First, you must register online and pay for the course while registering. We cannot issue a letter of invitation without payment first. Once you have paid, BUEA will send you a letter of invitation so you may apply for your B1 VISA. Please allow 3 – 5 business days to receive your invitation letter via email.
