Thank you very much. I’ve learned more deeper on H&S practices and legislations. It’s good and better than our country’s, will do my best to practice it on my work. Might also get you to conduct NEBOSH trainings for the Filipino safety engineers bound to Middle East.

Phil, Once again Thanks for an excellent course. The venue is amazing and makes for an added extra to the learning experience. The size of the group meant that nothing could be missed. The homework took some getting use to, hey it has been 28 years, but without it I think I would have really struggled. Mostly though I think it was the way you brought it across to us. Its certainly made it a lot easier to learn. I know how difficult it is to teach people so you have my full respect and gratitude.

"Phil Douglas" is an excellent instructor, as well as a person with a high moral and professional attitude. Sharp mind, easy to communicate with, always on point of the problems. I was very happy that I choose him as instructor for my Nebosh Training Course, and I strongly recommend him and his company, for any future businesses." Year first hired: 2008

“Phil Douglas kept our attention at all times with excellent training materials and interactions throughout the two week block release course. I am now really confident that I know enough from subjects learnt to be able to apply my knowledge back in my workplace. The course was excellent value for money! Well worth it!” July 22, 2009

“After surfing the net for NEBOSH courses and with follow up telephone interviews, I had the distinct impression that there were a lot of companies out there trying to make easy money on people genuinely seeking a Health & Safety qualification. Their prices were high and with no mention of "pass percentages". Luckily I came upon Phil’s website, where the prices were reasonable, and the phone conversation was very informative and encouraging with regard to "pass rates". For a two week course the curriculum is very extensive and overwhelming, but Phil brought across the essential aspects that are required to pass the exam in a very skilled and motivational way, a true teacher in every sense of the word. There were people on my course that had failed the course taken at a different company that passed this time round, which speaks volumes for Phil’s teaching and people skills. After all, that is what everyone is looking for, to achieve the qualification.” July 22, 2009

Thanks for all your hard work on our behalf over the last couple of weeks. It wasn’t easy, but then nothing worth having is. You made it considerably less painful than otherwise it might have been and for your grown-up approach and flexibility I am grateful. I think I did OK, but you never know until the marking is done, but if I have to go again, then it will be down to me and not you for sure.

Thank you very much for all of the help and guidance throughout the course it was a great experience, and you certainly have a gift for making such a complex subject understandable. Since I have been back I have spoken to a few people who have previously been on the course with other people, and they have asked me about the areas they found difficult, when I have explained the way you have taught us they immediately understood what it was all about.

“I have attended a number of training course delivered by Phil Douglas and recently underwent training with him to attain my NEBOSH General Certificate. All of his courses have been excellent but the NEBOSH was outstanding. It’s quite intense but Phil manages to keep you engaged even when the going gets tough with his injection of humour and visible passion for the subject. His results are outstanding and it is easy to see why, he has given me a sound understanding in the subject and I am very grateful. I cannot recommend Oracle highly enough and can assure anyone looking for this type of service that you will struggle to get anyone better.” July 21, 2009

I want to say thank you for the way you have made the course simple and build our confidence for success. more than grateful. I can not thank you enough for the support and encouragement you gave me. If there are things I could do for your company while still looking for job, it would be my pleasure.

Not only did he present the NEBOSH General Certificate course in a very knowledgeable way, but also became a close friend and source of valuable information afterwards which helps me tremendously doing my work more efficiently. He’s always been so helpful and his advice is just a call or e-mail away. I would strongly recommend Phil’s services!” July 21, 2009

“Having worked with Phil Douglas for a number of years throughout my career, I have attended numerous training courses run by Phil which I found extremely professional, knowledgeable and interesting. Now that I am an FM, Phil has run a number of courses for me. Phil has been a great support to me over the years offering advice and expertise in H&S. I am also sure it is down to Phil’s wide knowledge and expertise in Health & Safety that got me through my NEBOSH certificate!” January 23, 2009

“I undertook my NEBOSH General Certificate with Phil Douglas in Al-Khobar, Saudi Arabia and was very impressed with the quality of the training delivered. In addition to his excellent knowledge of health and safety Phil showed he has the skills to work with a multinational class of students. I would have no hesitation in undergoing further training with Phil and would recommend him to any organisation or individual looking for an experienced and capable health & safety trainer.” January 18, 2009

“Phil Douglas and i first met on a train returning from the Tengiz Oil and Gas fields to Atyrau in Kazakhstan. I think at the time we were the only two expats on the train and naturally got talking to each other. We found out that we had two things in common, the first was a coal mining background in the early days and a big interest in Safety. Phil then told me about his company and then invited me to sit a NEBOSH course with him. My background now is Electrical Engineering Oil and Gas so i thought this would be a very good qualification to hold. I attended Phil’s NEBOSH 2 week intensive course in 2005 and found his coursework to be extremely easy to understand and remember for the written examinations which had to be taken after the coursework. Phil has a great teaching skill and methodology which makes it easy to interact with him and other students on the course making learning so much easier. Another attribute is that you can contact Phil around the clock to seek his advice in Safety matters. I have had no hesitation in recommending Phil’s NEBOSH course to others. At this moment in time I work in Far East Russia on the Sakhalin Phase 2 project with Shell I have passed Phil’s recommendations and details to the projects assets safety personnel with regard to sending Russian students to the UK to participate on his NEBOSH International course. At the time of writing, this is in progress. With any regard to the subject of Safety then Phil and Oracle Safety Associates are National and International leaders in their field.
