HEALTH PROMOTION PROGRAM
The Boston University Occupational Health Center has been presenting health promotion lectures for employees of the Charles River Campus since 1997. The Health Promotion program is now part of the Work, Health, and Life “Get Trained” series offered through Human Resources. The program has recently expanded to offer lectures on the Boston University Medical Campus.
The goal of the program is to offer employees health information that advocates for healthy lifestyles, helps them gain knowledge to seek medical attention when needed, and introduces them to Boston Medical Center and Boston University health care providers. The lectures are presented during lunchtime, and a light lunch is provided.
Descriptions of the lectures are listed on the Human Resources Work, Health & Life Series training website. Please register in advance to attend.
