Some of the things that I learned from browsing the site were that the WELCOA finds that using Result-Oriented Approaches is a more effective way at getting employees to have more healthy lifestyles. This approach uses more research when creating programs, so more information is able to be given to participants. This tells me that it is ok as an employer or PH director to start at activity-oriented programs and then move my way towards result-oriented as I become more familiar with the company and the people.
Under free resources, there is a plethora of information for people to use. There are free reports that contain valuable information for creating HP programs in the workplace. Also there are past interviews that can help guide you to hire the right kind of the person for the job. I think that the most interesting was the case studies. There you can find information of America's Healthiest Companies, and see what they are doing to find such success. From that you can pick and choose what you would like to implement into your health promotion program.
I found all of this information very useful, I didnt know this website even existed so it is nice to know I will have this for future information.
