Environmental Health Registration Board (EHRB)
The EHRB’s activities are closely associated with many aspects of the work of the CIEH Education team. Board members are mainly CIEH Trustees, drawn from the Education & Professional Standards Board, although nominations to the Board may be made by the Secretary of State for Health (up to two persons), government departments or agencies with an interest in environmental health (one person). Other persons with an appropriate interest in environmental health may also be appointed by the Board to serve.
The EHRB's main activities are:
- Issuing a Certificate of Registration to people who have successfully completed an approved professional qualification programme in environmental health that includes an accredited academic course of study, work-based experiential learning and professional examinations
- Maintaining a register of people who have been issued with such certificates
- Accrediting courses of study, run by universities and colleges, in specific technical areas of environmental health such as food safety, health and safety enforcement etc.
- Conducting practice-related assessments of technical support staff who are undertaking accredited courses of study
The purpose of accrediting training courses leading to an EHRB technical qualification is to:
- Ensure courses operate and maintain high standards in teaching and course delivery
- Provide candidates with sound knowledge and skills in aspects of environmental health
Courses currently accredited by EHRB include Higher and Ordinary Certificates in Food Premises Inspection, the Diploma in Health and Safety at Work Enforcement and the Diploma in Environmental Protection.
