  This year marks the 45th anniversary of the NIOSH Education and Research Centers (ERC) which are extramurally funded university-based centers that carry out multidisciplinary education and research training activities and offer graduate and postgraduate training in the core and allied fields of occupational safety and health. The ERCs serve as a resource for our nation’s workforce through continuing education[1] and outreach. Together, the 18 ERC Continuing Education Programs provide critical knowledge and skills to tens of thousands of occupational safety and health professionals each year. The broad range of programs presented are designed to build capacity in occupational safety and health practitioners and researchers, leading to improvements in the safety, health, and well-being of the nation’s workforce. Between 2005 and 2020, the ERCs provided more than 3.8-million-person hours of training to more than 785,500 occupational safety and health professionals through more than 23,500 courses. The following table shows the continuing education activity by discipline.
