Course Series
in Workplace Wellness Leadership

Part-time, in-class or online study tailored for:

  • occupational health practitoners
  • managers
  • human resources professionals

The Work­place Well­ness Lead­er­ship series is designed to empow­er man­agers, HR per­son­nel, and OHS pro­fes­sion­als to design, cre­ate, and lead work­place health and well­ness ini­tia­tives, while address­ing the psy­cho­log­i­cal haz­ards and ele­ments need­ed to over­come them.

In this series of three sem­i­nars, learn­ers will exam­ine the key lead­er­ship con­cepts and skills nec­es­sary to effec­tive­ly lead work­place well­ness ini­tia­tives for their orga­ni­za­tions. The three work­shops pro­vide you with the skills to imple­ment the ​“Healthy Work­places Framework.”

Stu­dents who com­plete the series and wish to con­tin­ue with their edu­ca­tion may be grant­ed 35 hours of sem­i­nar exemp­tion toward a cer­tifi­cate in Occu­pa­tion­al Health and Safe­ty.

It is designed for mid-lev­el man­agers and super­vi­sors who are devel­op­ing work­place well­ness pro­grams in their orga­ni­za­tions. Stu­dents may come from a wide range of employ­ment sec­tors, includ­ing pri­vate, gov­ern­ment, edu­ca­tion, and non-profit.
