Certified Worksite Wellness Program Manager

Description

The NWI Certified Worksite Wellness Program Manager (CWWPM) certification program uses the most current information and research in the field to cover critical competencies to manage the planning, design, implementation, and measurement of a comprehensive worksite wellness/health management program. This program is geared toward professionals who are currently in a worksite wellness manager/supervisor role or who are working toward a manager/supervisor role and is the "next step" in NWI's worksite wellness certification following completion of the Certified Worksite Wellness Specialist (CWWS) program. (Individuals meeting eligibility requirements for CWWPM may be able to take the CWWPM course without first completing CWWS.) Course content is frequently reviewed and updated to ensure the most up-to-date information. A number of organizations have approved NWI's worksite wellness certification program for continuing education credit.
