About This Course

This online Manager’s Role course is designed as a condensed leadership-focused overview of the key concepts introduced in the Leadership for Safety Excellence program. It is intended to strengthen a manager’s understanding of occupational health and safety (OH&S) principles and reinforce the behaviours required to support effective safety management systems.
 
While this course discusses foundational occupational health and safety concepts, terminology, and program elements commonly associated with legislated health and safety requirements in Alberta, it does not provide direct quotations from, or detailed interpretation of, published legislation. Participants are encouraged to consult current provincial legislation and/or legal advisors for formal legislative requirements and compliance guidance.
 
The course emphasizes the critical role management commitment plays in building and sustaining effective occupational health and safety management systems. It explores the responsibilities of managers, key safety leadership behaviours, the structure of health and safety programs, and the importance of proactive performance measurement, including leading indicators.
 
This course is designed to build awareness, leadership capability, and system-level understanding rather than serve as a legislative compliance course.

Is there a time limit for online courses?

Everyone learns at a different pace and everyone retains information differently. When you take a course online, you go at your own speed. If you get to a certain point and don’t fully understand the material, you can pause and go back for a review. On the other hand, if everything makes perfect sense, you can go straight through the entire course right to the test.

How does virtual proctoring/testing with webcam monitoring work?

When you start your test, you will be monitored via your webcam. If you disappear from the screen or appear to be consulting another device or other material, you will be disqualified from the course. The company responsible for virtual proctoring is Integrity Advocate. You can find out more about how their system works here.
