PGCert in Health and Safety Management

Health and Safety Management is a one-year, three-semester post-diploma credential at College of the North Atlantic offered through the School of Engineering Technology. Drawing on engineering, physical science and behavioural science, the program prepares graduates for workplace health and safety roles, with the final semester offering either a cooperative work term or a work-integrated safety project. The program is delivered fully online in an asynchronous format. Graduates are eligible to pursue Canadian Registered Safety Professional (CRSP) certification through the Board of Canadian Registered Safety Professionals under Pathway C, for those not already working a minimum of 12 months in occupational health and safety, provided they apply within 12 months of graduation. Admission requires graduation from a recognized post-secondary institution with a two- or three-year diploma or degree; a combination of post-secondary education and industry experience acceptable to the College, such as a Red Seal Journeyperson certificate with relevant industry experience, will also be considered.
