To support you and your education, BCIT is adapting applied learning in formats
appropriate to the unfolding global situation. Spring PTS classes are commencing with
learning delivered in an online format.
Course Details
Emphasizes an integrative approach to program planning, addressing the individual, job and organizational factors that influence a specific workplace health issue. The process of program development includes: defining the workgroup at risk, developing collaborative relationships with stakeholders, designing a comprehensive program plan, and advocating improved workplace health and safety through written and verbal presentations of the program plan. The program plan includes documentation of a needs assessment, relevant goals and objectives and strategies for implementation and evaluation. The final step in this process is creating a business case for the program plan.
This course was retired after the Winter 2020 term and is no longer offered through BCIT Part-time Studies.
Learning Outcomes
As licensed health care practitioners, all learners will practice in accordance with professional standards of practice throughout the course. Upon successful completion, the student will be able to:
Perform a needs assessment and propose an occupational health and safety plan for a workgroup using a systematic framework which includes identification, assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation.
Develop a business case proposal, including a relevant cost-benefit analysis, for the recommended program. This proposal will outline the management of resources (financial, human, material, and time) within the overall context of program planning.
