Objectives This study aimed to highlight the utility of a new certificate program in Total Worker Health ® (TWH) designed for health professionals in other community health settings (OCHS). Methods Stakeholder needs assessment, priority setting, and comparison with existing core competencies in TWH approaches were performed to identify learning objectives and curricular threads in alignment with adult learning principles. Faculty-student pairings were conducted for content and assessment development. Results A free six-module training course that prepares OCHS professionals to collaborate with occupational safety and health (OSH) professionals. Conclusions TWH can be advanced through collaboration between OSH and OCHS professionals. In service of shared ground, OCHS professionals should articulate the influence of work on health, TWH principles, and OSH vocabulary and concepts. Such training is a necessary step toward facilitating groups for the benefit of all work and workers.
