WORKPLACE WELLNESS PROGRAMS

This course will provide hands-on skills on how to develop and implement an evidence-based workplace wellness program/policy that focuses on health promotion behaviors (physical activity, healthy eating management of chronic illnesses, et.). The course will cover a wide range of evidence-based wellness initiatives in the workplace and will seek to understand their importance of growing a healthier and more productive workplace environment. Students will conduct a needs assessment at their workplace and then develop a program/policy proposal for their current
workplace (including an implementation plan, budget, and resources needed).
