Hi all. Have to put a word in for the course in Belfast, N.Ireland. I completed this a couple of years ago and found it excellent plus it's accepted by NMC....Some focus on the other specialities of Public health but good focus on Occ health with excellent guest speakers. Really worth while course.

The programme is organised by the Institute of Occupational and Environmental Medicine (IOEM) and is designed to meet the needs of post graduate training in the prevention and control of work related ill health and to understand the issues of ill health and its effect on work in the 21st Century. It is open to graduates of relevant first degrees and those with appropriate work experience. This includes doctors, nurses, hygienists, health and safety personnel and graduates in relevant disciplines. The course has been established for over 15 years with over 200 students completing the programme from 10 different countries.

What other courses are there out there? We asked this a number of years ago but we could take this opportunity to update the list for dedicated Occupational Health courses and other courses on work-related health.
I would really like to hear from overseas list members on this, as well: we might make more opportunities for links and exchanges.

Dear All
In light of the previous emails I thought I would let you know that the University of Birmingham runs a MSc in Occupational Health. The programme can be taken full or part time and many of the modules can be taken on a stand-alone basis.
If you would like more information about the programme or the individual modules please have a look at the link below:

For more information about the IOEM please go to the following link: http://www.pcpoh.bham.ac.uk/ioem/
Kind regards

I am sad to hear this but even back in 1991 we complained that there was not enough practical emphasis on the courses. I stopped at the diploma level and went to the Institute of Occupational Health at Birmingham University to complete a post grad diploma in Occupational Health and Safety and it has been much more useful than sitting with health visitors debating the theory of health....IMO.

I have heard that Wolverhampton is stopping to run it’s OH course,
Having completed their course last year, graduating in February,
I very much enjoyed the course,
Was a little frustrated about the lack of practical links / application to practice,
But a lot of this falls back to the demands of the NMC for part 3 registration.
Many Thanks
Campbell
