Conferences
and Events
There are many national and international conferences, chronic
disease organization events, and national or provincial public
health conferences. There is no one central list, but listservs
and bulletins are good sources for finding out about such opportunities;
check the Health Nexus website for a good list.
Courses
and Short Programs
Ontario Health
Promotion Summer School, Prairie Region summer school is worth
considering attending. See OHPE 350.2 for more information.
Community
colleges and universities offer short programs and courses. Note
that many of these courses are offered as distance education and/or
as continuing education credits. Several community colleges offer
health promotion courses, some as part of other programs such
as nursing, and others as specialized programs, such as workplace
health promotion. Some colleges offer post-graduate certificate
or diploma programs in health promotion: e.g., Canadore College
in North Bay. See OHPE 350.2 for more information.
