University of Alberta:
Occupational Health & Safety Program

One of the most advanced programs in Canada, the University of Alberta’s Occupational Health and Safety Certificate is designed to help practitioners from many different backgrounds develop competencies for effective development, implementation, and evaluation of health and safety programs in a wide variety of occupational settings. 

This part-time program is offered in flexible and accessible formats and taught by industry experts in downtown Edmonton, Calgary, and across Alberta through partnerships with local colleges. Students may also fulfill all program requirements through online courses.

All Spring Term 2017 courses are open for registration—and you are just clicks away from securing your spot in the classroom. Occupational Health and Safety
