Education

Staff members of the foundation LDOH are lecturing in diverse courses, congresses and programs all over the world. Topics are occupational diseases, primary health care activities for workers’ health (BOHS), education in OSH for agriculture, how to find reliable information and others. The foundation started the development of own free accessible learning materials.

In this topic we introduce as well international courses, MOOCs and workshops for OSH professionals given by others such as universities and national institutes. Finally we present a number of relevant links.

In June 2017 we launched our Library on online education in OSH. We also offer a free digital book on how to find reliable information online in our field (third edition 2016 in English, Spanish and Turkish; see the shop).
