Health and Wellness Coordinator  

Encourage employees, residents or students to care for their health and wellbeing. Health and Wellness Coordinators educate and inspire people to enjoy better mental, emotional and physical health.

Corporate Health Officer (aka Chief Wellness Officer)

In the corporate world, comprehensive wellbeing courses (or programs) that promote mental, emotional, physical, financial and professional development are rising in popularity. So, it makes sense that there’s a rise in demand for CWOs or Chief Wellness Officers! A CWO might seem like it belongs in a human resources department. But it’s unique and not compliance-based in function. CWOs plan, execute and monitor strategies to improve staff culture, morale and happiness in workplaces.

If any of these careers appeal to you, explore our wellbeing courses to add essential skills to your professional portfolio. Or perhaps an online course could be a springboard for further, in-depth study?
