Principals OHS eLearning Update Welcome to the OHS eLearning Update page. This page is designed to provide Principals and OHS Management Nominees with specific advice and assistance on the OHS eLearning program. The Employee Safety and Wellbeing Branch will update this page when required to ensure the latest information is available. For the remainder of the 2014 eLearning program Principals are asked to: 

Inform all staff of the requirement to complete Slips Trips and Falls eLearning module by 30 June 2015.



Contact staff with the relevant specialist roles notifying them that they are required to complete specialist eLearning modules by 30 June 2015.



Complete the specialist eLearning modules (if applicable to the risk profile of the school). For example Principals in secondary schools offering Materials Technology should complete the Technology Safety eLearning module.



Utilise the OHS Management System OHS Training Planner/Register to plan and record completed eLearning modules. Assistance with the OHS Training Planner/Register is available by contacting the OHS Advisory Service (see contact details below).



Cite certificates from staff that have completed their assigned eLearning modules. This is currently the preferred way pending further upgrades to the Learning Management System.
