Occupational Health Internship Program (OHIP): The Next Generation of Leaders
Since 2004, the national Occupational Health Internship Program (OHIP) has played a vital role in mentoring and inspiring a new generation of occupational health and safety professionals.
The program has grown substantially over the past decade and has successfully responded to workforce changes by recruiting a diverse group of students who have different academic and technical skills and who speak the languages of the workers involved in their projects.
OHIP is housed within the Association of Occupational and Environmental Clinics and has training sites in the San Francisco Bay Area, Los Angeles, San Diego, Chicago, Boston, New York City (for graduate students only), New Orleans and Marshfield, WI. Additional sites may be added in 2016.
