Take the first step to a new career or enhance your qualifications with ODU's online certificate in occupational safety.
Occupational safety professionals help employers create safe and healthy work environments. You'll also provide guidance for employee safety standards, such as those set by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA). Plus, your skill set will include recommending procedures and equipment to reduce accidents, health claims, legal actions, and property damage.
This certificate can be taken by itself, but it is also a popular addition to majors in:
- engineering
- business
- biology
- criminal justice
- environmental health
The four courses in this certificate may also help you study for credentials from the Board of Certified Safety Professionals.
