The workplace safety courses and workshops organized by the Canadian Centre for Occupational Health and Safety (CCOHS), traditionally held at CCOHS or at clients' worksites, are now meeting the public demand for e-learning.

With CCOHS' new e-learning, students can access course material - and authoritative reference material from CCOHS' extensive collection - through the Internet. Vubiz, an international leader in e-learning development, has partnered with CCOHS to create an e-learning version of CCOHS' Health and Safety Training for Managers and Supervisors course.

CCOHS is developing several other e-learning courses, including Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System (WHMIS) for workers and for employers, which will be added to their portfolio in the near future. These courses, delivered through the Internet using a Web browser, are user-friendly, with easy features such as a printable notepad, book marking, "help bubbles," links to supplementary resources, and easy navigation to any section of the course. The programs offer a virtual tour to help e-learners get started, and interaction with the course instructor is available for extra guidance.
