The Workplace Safety Micro-Credential offers a comprehensive curriculum designed to equip individuals with the essential knowledge and skills to ensure workplace safety and effectively respond to emergencies. This program comprises two modules, focusing on critical aspects of incident preparedness:

• Pre-Incident Awareness and Threat Recognition: This module provides participants with the necessary knowledge to recognize potential threats and hazards in the workplace. Topics include identifying warning signs, understanding situational awareness, and implementing proactive measures to prevent incidents before they occur.
• Responding to a Threat: Participants learn how to effectively respond to various threats, including active shooters, and workplace violence. 
• Life-Saving Medical Training: This module emphasizes the importance of immediate medical intervention in emergencies. Participants acquire essential first aid skills, bleeding control (wound packing, tourniquet).
• Interaction with First Responders: Participants learn how to effectively communicate and collaborate with first responders during emergency incidents. This module covers the role of law enforcement, fire departments, and emergency medical services, as well as best practices for facilitating a smooth transition of command and control.

Upon successful completion of  both modules, participants will receive a Workplace Safety Micro-Credential, demonstrating their proficiency in incident preparedness and their commitment to maintaining a safe and secure work environment. This credential not only enhances individual skills but also contributes to a culture of safety within the workplace, ultimately safeguarding the well-being of employees and stakeholders.
