Diploma of Work Health and Safety

This qualification provides the knowledge and skills for graduates to coordinate and maintain the work health and safety (WHS) program in an organisation. It reflects the role of practitioners who apply a substantial knowledge base and well-developed skills in a wide variety of work health and safety contexts. No licensing, legislative or certification requirements apply to this qualification at the time of publication.

Students, currently employed, are encouraged to bring their current employer’s work health and safety policies and procedures (with their employer’s permission) to use in their course work. This material must be reviewed prior to use by the Institute’s Trainer/Assessor. For students who are unable to bring adequate policies and procedures, the Institute will provide a practice set of documents.
