If you are running an undergraduate or postgraduate degree course that enables students to gain knowledge of several core disciplines, the ability to integrate knowledge across domains and be able to apply a systems approach, then please consider applying for CIEHF Qualifying Course status.
Qualifying Courses will be actively promoted through this website, at conferences, at careers events and in response to enquiries for training. Only Qualifying Courses are recommended to people who ask us about ergonomics/human factors training. Graduates from Qualifying Courses are eligible for Graduate Membership of the CIEHF and it also contributes to their future application as a Registered Member. This is a great incentive for them to apply for a Qualifying Course.
You can use a special Qualifying Course logo and the text “This is an CIEHF Qualifying Course” in your publicity for the course.
