We at the American College of Healthcare Sciences, (ACHS) take the needs of employers seriously. Our graduates can be found in leading holistic health organizations and corporations across all industries around the United States and worldwide. Our courses are some of the very few accredited programs available in complementary alternative health, holistic nutrition, aromatherapy, herbal medicine, and wellness coaching.
There are projects in each ACHS course that can be used in a corporate setting, such as developing employee corporate wellness programs and personal and professional development opportunities.
The company’s employee tuition assistance program is a perfect win-win way to establish a workplace wellness program that will help employees stay healthy, happy and productive while also reducing company cost.
Establishing an employee educated and implemented workplace wellness program also empowers your company’s team to create a personalized program that inspires better healthcare decisions while driving unmatched savings and satisfaction.
Employee wellness programs have often been viewed as a nice extra, not a strategic imperative. The data show otherwise. Companies that have employee wellness programs have reaped big rewards in the form of lower health care costs, greater productivity, and higher morale.
Outcomes of a workplace wellness program include:
- Lower costs: The savings on health care costs alone make for an impressive ROI
- Greater productivity: Participants in wellness programs are absent less often and perform better at work than their nonparticipant counterparts
- Higher morale: Employee pride, trust, and commitment increase, contributing to a vigorous organization leading to peak job performance
- Happier Workers: “Healthy in mind, body, and spirit” applies to the benefit of employee, wellness programs
ACHS’s programs are designed to offer flexibility for working students while retaining academic rigor, encouraging critical thinking, and practical application of theoretical material.
