Continuing Education

The mission of the Office of Public Health Practice (OPHP) is to provide a link between our faculty and practice partners in teaching, research, and the practice of public health. The continuing education activities are designed to strengthen the cooperation between the OPHP and state and local public health practitioners. The Rutgers School of Public Health established the OPHP to promote individual and community health through training, education, and service. The programs contained within the OPHP are the NJ Public Health Training Center, funded by the Health Resources and Services Administration; the New York/New Jersey Education and Research Center, Continuing Education Program (NIOSH); the New Jersey/New York Hazardous Materials Worker Training Center (NIEHS); the Mid-Atlantic Asbestos Training Center (USEPA); and the Atlantic OSHA Training Center (USDOL).

The OPHP welcomes over 3,000 professionals to its training facility annually. Offering 250 continuing education short-courses that address topics such as asbestos, lead abatement, hazardous waste, occupational safety, environmental health, and air pollution. Students may select one-hour seminars to full 40-hour sessions on the subjects listed in this catalog. OPHP's courses are held in modern classrooms and a hands-on workshop room. Our classes, instructed by experts in their fields, are structured to be small enough to allow active discussion and personal attention, yet large enough to provide a diversified group of participants.
