OHCOW e-COURSES
At OHCOW we believe that progressing at your own pace and in your own environment makes for a more successful learning experience – so we are busy developing e-courses to meet this need.
NEW!
OHCOW e-Courses are Available Free-of-Charge
NOTE: Our courses are not intended as training, rather we are sharing occupational health and safety knowledge in practical terms for individual consideration, workplace application and injury / illness prevention.
If / when more technical expertise is needed, it should be supplemented by further instruction and hands-on training specific to the job, worksite, equipment and jurisdiction – or by making an inquiry for assistance to OHCOW professional staff at ask@ohcow.on.ca.
