Course description
The human performance pathway is an industry recognised qualification to build human performance capability in your organisation.
Developed by the Energy Institute and the Chartered Institute of Ergonomics and Human Factors (CIEHF), the pathway is an eLearning training course for all levels – from building awareness of human performance, all the way to developing skilled practitioners.
From a one-hour introductory module to a fully supported Learning Pathway to increase competence and capability, we have options to suit your role and your professional development needs.
This training course is self-taught, giving you the freedom to do it when you decide to, and encourages you to improve your ability to manage human performance with a ‘learning by doing’ approach. Learners can journey on the pathway only as far as they need to.
Those who complete all levels of the pathway can apply to become a Technical member of the CIEHF.
