Get Your Employer’s Support

We Want to See You at PDC!

Unless you work in the OHS field or are a member of the JOHSC, not everyone knows what it takes to stay current as an OHS practitioner. Only we know how important networking with colleagues is to gain best practice information and that attending training sessions with reputable facilitators is crucial to update knowledge and to keep in line with ever changing regulations. How do you gain your employer’s support to attend the CSSE national PDC?

With close to 4,000 members nationwide and 36 established local chapters, the Canadian Society of Safety Engineering (CSSE) is the leading health, safety and environmental organization for professionals in Canada. CSSE is holding their annual professional development conference in Winnipeg, Manitoba this year and you don’t want to miss it!
Beyond the educational aspect of the conference is the networking and sharing of lessons learned with fellow safety practitioners that set the CSSE’s PDC apart from other conferences. There are endless opportunities to network through breaks, lunches, and social events.
