Information
The programme was launched in September 2018 and has been thriving ever since. This is only possible thanks to the ongoing contribution of our generous sponsors.
The HASANZ Scholarships Programme is helping to grow the professional health and safety workforce to ensure businesses have access to quality health and safety advice and services for years to come.
Available courses
We have compiled a handy guide to tertiary workplace health and safety courses in New Zealand and Australia. This list intends to provide a helpful starting point for those looking for available courses. However, applications to study other tertiary qualifications in workplace health and safety that aren’t featured on this list are also accepted.
