Certified Health and Safety Manager (CHSM)
The Certified Health and Safety Manager (CHSM) course delivers expert training in safety management, hazard identification, and OSHA compliance. Offered by the American Institute of Safety Professionals, it equips managers to develop safety programs and ensure compliant, safe workplaces across key industries.
What is the Certified Health and Safety Manager (CHSM)?
The Certified Health and Safety Manager (CHSM) certification from the American Institute of Safety Professionals is the management-level professional designation for safety professionals who design, implement, and govern organisational safety programmes. While the CHSO (Certified Health and Safety Officer) certifies operational competency, the CHSM certifies the management competency to lead safety programmes, build management systems, manage teams, allocate resources, drive strategic safety improvement, and interface with executive leadership. The CHSM is the career destination for safety professionals advancing from officer to manager roles. The curriculum covers safety management system design and implementation (ISO 45001 framework), strategic safety planning (vision, policy, objectives, KPIs), safety programme governance (all programme elements), regulatory compliance management (OSHA, state, international — multi-jurisdictional awareness), safety performance management (TRIR, DART, leading indicators, dashboards, executive reporting), team leadership and development (managing safety teams, developing officers), budget and resource management, contractor safety governance, incident investigation programme management, training programme governance, audit programme design and management, management review and continuous improvement, and the executive communication skills that secure organisational commitment to safety. All training is delivered 100 percent online through leading delivery platforms and the American Institute of Safety Professionals Learning Management System (LMS). On successful completion, you receive an American Institute of Safety Professionals certificate, a professional wallet card, and an official transcript, all employer-verifiable at amiosp.com/student-verifications.
