Students at the University of Alberta enrolled in the Occupational Health and Safety Professional Diploma program will learn from industry professionals and get the education they need to excel in the OHS field.

This program was specifically designed with courses that reflect the Board of Canadian Registered Safety Professionals’ CRSP accreditation requirements. That means students will graduate meeting industry needs, and will get a more straightforward path from which to build their career. Students will be equipped with not only OHS skills, but business processes and protocols, effective decision making skills, leadership techniques, and teamwork skills that will aid them in their career.

Students will have up to eight years to complete the 12 required courses, and 131 hours of elective courses, though the majority of students are able to complete the program in 2-3 years.

Admission Requirements

  • OHS certificate

What You’ll Learn

  • How to identify and explore ethical issues within the workplace.
  • An understanding how psychology is implemented in a health and safety role.
  • How to define and describe potential risks in a working environment.

I am a graduate student at the University of Alberta.

It is a very vibrant student life, with plenty of club-run events happening on campus throughout the year.

Moving from another province, I found a strong sense of community within the UofA student body, particularly with other graduate students.

The campus is beautiful and has a lot of trees and green space.

I graduated from uofa with an economics degree and then worked for my my family's manufacturing business. After 3 and a half years, I knew I needed help taking the company to the next level but I needed to keep working. The online MBA was the perfect solution.

After 36 months of studying part-time, I can say my business skills are beyond where I thought they would be. What I learned about leadership and operations I use every single day. I was surprised that I was also able to network and build relationships with my group even though I had the flexibility to choose a lot of my own courses as I went.

The other reason I choose the program is because of the flexible start dates. I kept putting this decision off, so when I was finally ready, I didn't have to wait another few semester to get going.
