Mastering Workplace Health and Safety (Short Course)

What to expect:

Do you find WHS a bit overwhelming? Is the legislation intimidating at best? Unsure of your responsibilities in the workplace?

This course will crack it all wide open and explain the nitty gritty of WHS in language YOU can relate to.

How does it work?

At the end of each lesson, you will be given a short interactive test to undertake, which will provide an indication of how your learning is progressing. Upon completing the very last lesson, you will be offered a more thorough automated test or examination. This final assessment can be undertaken at any time of day or night; and any day of the week; and if you achieve an overall pass (60% or more); you will be able to obtain a “certificate of completion” with your name and completion date on it.

Note: these short courses are self-guided online courses and are not to be confused with our tutor-supported online courses.
